3. Basics of Circuits and Components
What is a circuit?
Any system that is formed by interconnecting electronic
components.
A system that processes electronic data.
Circuits maybe classified as Analog circuits or digital circuits.
Mixed signal circuit is also possible.

4. Basics of Circuits and Components Cont…
What is Component?
Any discrete electronic device that understands electronic
Signals.
Electronic Components are generally made up of metals and
semiconductors
Smaller components may be integrated together to build larger
components.

5. Printed Circuit Boards
PCB is a platform that is used to place and connect all the
components together.
The board is made out of a insulator/substrate.
Components are placed in the holes of the PCB.
The leads of the components are connected using copper
tracks.
Printed circuit boards are classified into following:
Single sided PCB (Components on one side and tracks on
other side)
Double sided PCB (Components on one side and tracks on
both sides)

8. Introduction to PSPICE model
SPICE: Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit
Emphasis.
PSPICE: Programmable SPICE
It is computer program that help in modeling components
and simulating their functionality.
A SPICE model is a text-description of a circuit
component used by the SPICE Simulator to
mathematically predict the behavior of that part under
varying conditions.

10. Schematic Design
First step for building a electronic circuit/system.
Schematic is a standard way representation of circuit.
It can be understood by any circuit designer.
It can be modified as per the requirements.
Schematic is used by SPICE for circuit simulation.
Same schematic maybe used to design PCB.

12. PSPICE simulation
This can perform :
Transient analysis.
Frequency analysis.
Simulation at different temperatures.
12 OrCAD of Cir. Sim. and PCB Design ANISH GOEL

13. PCB design using OrCAD
No requirement for designing PCB separately.
PCB can be generated from the schematic.
Placement of the components is the next step.
Routing of tracks can be done manually or automatically.
All PCB design rules are taken care by the DRC.
Modifications in PCB can be made by changing the schematic
directly.
The tool generates a .gerb file that can be directly fed to the
CNC machine for PCB fabrication.

15. Testing and Verification
Testing of the circuit is done by applying all the possible
combinations of inputs and verifying the expected
outputs.
Fault during testing can be analyzed by looking at the
schematic directly.
