PSpice, which was first introduced as a Personal Computer Program, has become very popular because of the wide use of PCs. A commercial version of SPICE that has gained popularity in universities is PSpice, from the MicroSim Corporation. Few commercial products are based on SPICE3, but a number of these programs support SPICE3 functionality that is not available in SPICE2. The current circuit simulation development at the University of California at Berkeley is devoted to the SPICE3 program. The majority of the commercial SPICE packages are based on and support the functionality of SPICE2, version G6, from the University of California at Berkeley. Today, SPICE in its many versions is used not only for IC design but also for analog printed circuit boards, power electronics, and other applications. The name SPICE stands for Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis and was inspired by the application to integrated circuit (IC) design, which made computer simulation mandatory. SPICE has become the standard computer program for electrical simulation, with over 40,000 copies in use worldwide. This point is reinforced in the text by using the most popular SPICE versions to run the examples developed in the chapters. The topics presented in this book are universally valid for SPICE users no matter which version they use. This book is written for electrical engineering students and professionals who use one of the many versions of the SPICE program to analyze and design circuits.
