Proven SPICE Simulation Without Messy
Syntax |
Multisim SPICE is
the best way to simulate circuits - it's 100% compliant with industry-standard
SPICE, unlike some other proprietary technologies, such as PSpice. The
Multisim simulation engine is based on the industry standard and widely
proven Berkeley SPICE, with customization for greater speed, accuracy
and convergence. Multisim SPICE also adds XSPICE features to extend
the capabilities of Berkeley SPICE for improved digital capabilities
and behavioral modeling.

Easy-to-use
SPICE Simulation
|
Multisim's
SPICE simulator is easy-to-use simply build the circuit and with the
click of the mouse you can begin simulating in less time than it takes
to install and configure most other similar applications. Only Multisim
contains a unique suite of virtual instruments that operate just like
their real-world equivalents. When you adjust the controls on these
instruments, SPICE commands are automatically issued to the simulation
engine. As a result, you don't have to be a SPICE expert to take full
advantage of this powerful simulation program. With Multisim SPICE,
you'll spend more time designing and less time reading software user
guides. |

Interactive
Simulation - Make circuit changes while you simulate |
Multisim
is the only program of its kind that allows you make changes to a circuit
while a simulation is running, providing you with instant feedback. The
importance of this capability to a students' learning experience cannot
be overstated. By modifying component parameters, during simulation, students
can instantly see changes in the oscilloscopes display. For example, in
classroom demonstrations or in the lab, the behavior of a circuit can
be brought to life via the changing waveforms as a potentiometer is varied. |

Co-Simulation
Combines the Best of SPICE and VHDL |
Only
Multisim offers the unique ability to simulate circuits containing
any combination of SPICE, VHDL, or Verilog modeled elements. A co-simulation
core coordinates the communication between the SPICE & HDL simulation
engines, so that Multisim's co-simulation is automatic and completely
transparent to you. SPICE & HDLs each have their unique strengths
such that various portions of your designs may be best modeled using
different simulation languages. You can use VHDL to design and simulate
your FPGAs,/CPLDs or for modeling LSI/VLSI chips which cannot practically
be modeled in SPICE. Then, Multisim allows you to combine SPICE &
HDL models into a single simulation of your entire circuit. As a result,
Multisim delivers the world's best simulation engine, capable of accurately
handling everything from basic analog components to the most advanced
ICs. |

FEATURES
|
- Simulates
SPICE and HDL's separately and together
- Simulates circuits/systems
containing both programmable logic and off-the-shelf devices
- Eliminates the
need to use separate tools for SPICE and HDL simulation
- Design, simulate
and program your CPLDs/FPGAs, then simulate them as part of a
complete PCB.
