The OP

Please advise me, seniors!!! [Copy link]

I am a college student. I want to ask, how is Multisim 8, a circuit design software, now? Is it used a lot in actual work? I want to learn it well! Is it necessary? Please recommend a good tutorial!!!

In January 2005, Canadian IIT Company launched the latest electronic simulation software ultisim8.0 on its official website. It is an improved version of the electronic simulation software Multisim7. Its operation interface is modeled after the WindowsXP style. It adds a design file management window and a spreadsheet display window to make file management and operation more convenient. At the same time, it adds a filter classification option when calling components such as resistors, capacitors, and inductors to make it more convenient to call components. It adds a font option for marking components such as resistors to make the marking of components such as resistors more intuitive and practical. There are no major changes in other functions, and with a slight adjustment, the basic interface of Multisim8.0 can be adjusted to the basic interface of Multisim7, so that the two versions are well compatible with each other. The following is a detailed introduction to the use of the latest electronic simulation software Multisim8.0. (I) Adjust the basic interface of Multisim8.0 to the basic interface of Multisim7: 1. After starting the electronic simulation software Multisim8.0, its startup screen will first appear as shown in Figure 1. 2. After a while, the basic operation interface of the electronic simulation software Multisim8.0 will appear as shown in Figure 2. 3. On the left side of the basic operation interface of the electronic simulation software Multisim8.0, a design file management window is added, which can easily manage the creation, opening and saving of design files. Click the menu View, and a drop-down menu as shown in Figure 3 will appear. Then click the Design Toolbox and Spreadsheet View items respectively to close the two added windows; then click Ruler bars and Status Bar respectively to close the ruler bar and status bar. 4. Click Toolbars in Figure 3, and a drop-down menu as shown in Figure 4 will appear. Click Virtual again to call out the virtual component box, move it to the left side of the interface and place it vertically, that is, the basic interface of the electronic simulation software Multisim8.0 is adjusted to the same as the basic interface of the electronic simulation software Multisim7, as shown in Figure 5. Like most software, the new versions launched later are generally compatible with the old versions, so users can open the simulation circuit diagram created and saved in the Multisim7 interface in the Multisim8.0 interface, which brings great convenience to users who originally mastered the Multisim7 software, and the resistance mark "ohm" in the opened simulation circuit diagram is automatically converted to "Ω". (II) Customize the user interface: 1. Click the Options menu, and a drop-down menu will appear as shown in Figure 6. There are 3 options: Global Preferences... for parameter options such as component placement mode, American and European component models, etc.; Sheet Properties... for setting content for circuits, work platforms, fonts, etc.; Customize User Interface... for setting user interface content. 2. Click the Global Preferences... option, and a dialog box will appear as shown in Figure 7. There are 4 pages in total. In the Place component mode column of the Parts page, select Continuous placement (ESC to…; in the Symbol standar column, select DIN, use the default values for the others, and finally click "ok" below. 3. Click the Sheet Properties… option, and a dialog box as shown in Figure 8 will appear. There are 6 pages in total. In the Circuit page, first remove the check box in front of Save as default in the lower left corner, and then in the Show column, only check the RefDes and Values items; in the Color column, click the drop-down arrow, select Custom in the drop-down options, and then click the color box to the right of Background. In the pop-up color dialog box as shown in Figure 9, select white in the basic color, and then click "OK" below to set the basic interface to white background; use the same method to set Wire to red; set all other items to black. 4. Return to the Circuit page, and the default values can be used for other options. Check Save as default, and then press the "Apply" and "ok" buttons below to complete the settings of this page. 5. Click the Workspace page, and a dialog box as shown in Figure 10 will appear. First, remove the Save as 6. Click the Font page, and a dialog box as shown in Figure 11 will appear. Move the scroll bar under the Font column, find Lucida Console and select it, select Regular under the Font Style column; select 8 in the Size column; then check the Component Ref Des and Component Values and Lab under the Change All column, and use the default values for the others, check Save as default, and press the "Apply" and "ok" buttons below to complete the page settings.  Details Published on 2008-7-23 16:05
