The Circuits menu can be used to view some interesting pre-defined circuits. Once a circuit is selected, you may modify it all you want. The choices are:

• Basics
• Resistors: this shows some resistors of various sizes in series and parallel.
• Capacitor: this shows a capacitor that you can charge and discharge by clicking on the switch.
• Inductor: this shows an inductor that you can charge and discharge by clicking on the switch.
• LRC Circuit: this shows an oscillating circuit with an inductor, resistor, and capacitor. You can close the switch to get current moving in the inductor, and then open the switch to see the oscillation.
• Voltage Divider: this shows a voltage divider, which generates a reference voltage of 7.5V, 5V, and 2.5V from the 10V power supply.
• Thevenin’s Theorem states that the circuit on top is equivalent to the circuit on the bottom.
• Norton’s Theorem states that the circuit on top is equivalent to the circuit on the bottom.
• A/C Circuits
• Capacitor: this shows a capacitor connected to an alternating voltage source.
• Inductor
• Caps of Various Capacitances: shows the response of three different capacitors to the same frequency.
• Caps w/ Various Frequencies: shows the response of three equal capacitors to three different frequencies; the higher the frequency, the larger the current.
• Inductors of Various Inductances: shows the response of three different inductors to the same frequency.
• Inductors w/ Various Frequencies: shows the response of three equal inductors to three different frequencies: the lower the frequency, the larger the current.
• Impedances of Same Magnitude: shows a capacitor, an inductor, and a resistor that have impedances of equal magnitude (but different phase). The peak current is the same in all three cases.
• Series Resonance: shows three identical LRC circuits being driven by three different frequencies. The middle one is being driven at the resonance frequency (shown in the lower right corner of the screen as “res.f”). The top one is being driven at a slightly lower frequency, and the bottom one has a slightly higher frequency. The peak voltage in the middle circuit is very high because it is resonating with the source.
• Parallel Resonance: these three circuits have the inductor, resistor, and capacitor in parallel instead of series. In this case, the middle circuit is being driven at resonance, which causes the current there to be lower than in the other two cases (because the impedance of the circuit is highest at resonance).
• Passive Filters
• High-Pass Filter (RC). The original signal is shown at the lower left, and the filtered signal (with the low-frequency part removed) is shown to the right. The breakpoint (-3 dB point) is shown at the lower right, as “f.3db”.
• Low-Pass Filter (RC).
• High-Pass Filter (RL). This high-pass filter uses an inductor rather than a capacitor.
• Low-Pass Filter (RL).
• Band-Pass Filter: this filter passes a range of frequencies close to the resonance frequency (shown at the lower right, as “res.f”).
• Notch Filter: Also known as a band-stop filter, this circuit filters out a range of frequencies close to the resonance frequency.
• Twin-T Filter: This filter does a very good job of filtering out 60 Hz signals.
• Crossover: A set of three filters; the top one passes low frequencies, the middle one passes midrange, and the bottom one passes high frequencies.
• Other Passive Circuits
• Series/Parallel
1. Inductors in Series. The circuit at left is equivalent to the circuit at right.
2. Inductors in Parallel.
3. Caps in Series.
4. Caps in Parallel.
• Transformers
1. Transformer: A basic transformer circuit with an equal number of windings in each coil.
2. Transformer w/ DC: Here we try to pass a DC current through a transformer.
3. Step-Up Transformer: Here we step 10 V up to 100 V.
4. Step-Down Transformer: Here we step 120 V down to 12 V.
• 3-Way Light Switches: shows how a light bulb can be turned on and off from two locations.
• 3- and 4-Way Light Switches: shows how a light bulb can be turned on and off from three locations.
• Differentiator: shows how a capacitor can act as a differentiator, reflecting changes in voltage.
• Wheatstone Bridge: shows a balanced Wheatstone bridge. If the bridge were not balanced, current would be flowing across from one leg to the other.
• Critically Damped LRC.
• Current Source: shows a source that keeps the current through the circuit constant regardless of the switch positions.
• Inductive Kickback: In this circuit, we have a switch that controls the supply of current to an inductor. An inductor resists any changes in current. If you open the switch, the inductor tries to maintain the same current; it does this by charging the capacitance between the contacts of the switch. (Any two wires in close proximity have some parasitic capacitance between them.) There is a small capacitor (much larger than the actual value) across the switch terminals to simulate this. When you open the switch, the voltage goes very high; in real life, this would cause arcing.
• Blocking Inductive Kickback: shows how inductive kickback can be blocked with a “snubber” circuit.
  
  
• Power Factor: This circuit shows an inductor being driven by an AC voltage. The colors indicate power consumption; red means that a component is consuming power, and green means that the component is contributing power. The left side of the circuit represents the power company’s side, and the right side represents a factory (with a large induction motor).
  
  The highly inductive load is causing the power company to work a lot harder than normal for a given amount of power delivered. The graph on the left indicates the power lost in the power company’s equipment (the resistor at top left). The graph in the middle is the power delivered to the factory. The graph on the right is the power delivered to the inductor (and then returned, causing the time average of power delivered to be zero).
  
  Even though a peak power of 40 mW is being delivered to the factory, 200 mW is being dissipated in the power company’s wires. This is why power companies charge extra for inductive loads.
  
  
• Power Factor Correction: Here a capacitor has been added to the circuit, causing far less energy to be wasted in the power company’s wires (aside from an initial spike to charge the capacitor).
• Resistor Grid: shows current flowing in a two-dimensional grid of resistors.
• Resistor Grid 2.
• Coupled LC's

o LC Modes(2): Shows both modes of two coupled LC circuits.

o Weak Coupling.

o LC Modes(3): Shows all 3 modes of 3 coupled LC circuits.

o LC Ladder: This circuit is a simple model of a transmission line. A pulse propagates down the length of the ladder like a wave. The resistor at the end has a value equal to the characteristic impedance of the ladder (determined by the ratio of L to C), which causes the wave to be absorbed. A larger resistance or an open circuit will cause the wave to be reflected; a smaller resistance or a short will cause the wave to be reflected negatively. See the Feynman Lectures 22-6, 7.

• Phase-Sequence Network: This circuit generates a series of sine waves with a phase difference of 90°.

• Diode I/V Curve: This demonstrates the response of a diode to an applied voltage. The voltage source generates a sawtooth wave, which starts out at –800 mV and slowly rises to 800 mV, and then immediately drops back down again.
• Diode Limiter.
• DC Restoration. This takes an AC signal and adds a DC offset, making it a positive signal.
• Blocking Inductive Kickback: shows how inductive kickback can be blocked with a diode.
• Spike Generator.
• Voltage Multipliers
1. Voltage Doubler: Doubles the voltage in the AC input signal (minus two diode drops), and turns it into DC.
2. Voltage Doubler 2
3. Voltage Tripler
4. Voltage Quadrupler
• AM Detector: This is a “crystal radio”, an AM radio receiver with no amplifier. The raw antenna feed is shown in the first scope slot in the lower left. The inductor and the capacitor C1 are tuned to 3 kHz, the frequency shown in the lower right as “res.f”. This picks up the carrier wave shown in the middle scope slot. A diode is used to rectify this, and the C2 capacitor smoothes it out to generate the audio signal in the last scope slot (which is simply a 12 Hz sine wave in this example). By experimenting with the value of C1’s capacitance, you can pick up two other “stations” at 2.71 kHz and 2.43 kHz.

• Differential Amplifiers
1. Differential Input: This circuit subtracts the first signal from the second and amplifies it.
2. Common-Mode Input: This shows a differential amplifier with two equal inputs. The output should be a constant value, but instead the input waveforms make it through to the output (attenuated rather than amplified). (When both inputs change together, that is called “common-mode input”; the “common-mode rejection ratio” is the ability of a differential amplifier to ignore common-mode signals and amplify only the difference between the inputs.)
3. Common-Mode w/Current Source: This is an improved differential amplifier that uses a current source as a load. The common-mode rejection ratio is very good; the circuit amplifies the small differences between the two inputs, and ignores the common-mode signal.

• CMOS Inverter (w/capacitance): In reality, there are two reasons that CMOS gates draw current. This circuit demonstrates the first reason: capacitance between the MOSFET gate and its source and drain. It requires current to charge this capacitance, which consumes power. It also causes a short delay when changing state.
• CMOS Inverter (slow transition): The other reason that CMOS gates draw current is that both transistors will conduct at the same time when the input is halfway between high and low. This causes a current spike when the input is in transition. In this circuit, there is a low-pass filter on the input which causes it to transition slowly, so you can see the spike.
• CMOS Transmission Gate: This circuit will pass any signal, even an analog signal (as long as it stays between 0 and 5 V) when the gate input is “H”. When it’s “L”, then the gate acts as an open circuit.
• CMOS Multiplexer: This circuit uses two transmission gates to select one of two inputs. If the logic input is “H”, then the output is a 40Hz triangle wave. If it’s “L”, then the output is a 80Hz sine wave.

The voltage-controlled oscillator outputs a frequency proportional to the input voltage. After the PLL circuit locks onto the input frequency, the output frequency will be the same as the input frequency (with a small phase delay).

To add a new component to the circuit, click the right mouse button on an unused area of the window. This will bring up a menu that allows you to select what component you want. Then click where you want the first terminal of the component, and drag to where you want the other terminal. The menu items allow you to create:

· wires

· resistors; you can adjust the resistance after creating the resistor by clicking the right mouse button and selecting “Edit”

· capacitors; you can adjust the capacitance using “Edit”

· inductors, switches, transistors, etc.

· voltage sources, in either 1-terminal or 2-terminal varieties. The 1-terminal versions use ground as the other terminal. By clicking the right mouse button and selecting “Edit”, you can modify the voltage and the waveform of the voltage source, changing it to DC, AC (sine wave), square wave, triangle, sawtooth, or pulse. If it’s not a DC source, you can also change the frequency and the DC offset.

· op-amps, with power supply limits of –15V and 15V assumed (not shown). The limits can be adjusted using “Edit”.

· text labels, which you can modify with the “Edit” dialog

· scope probes; these have no effect on the circuit, but if you select them and use the right mouse menu item “View in Scope”, you can view the voltage difference between the terminals.

Also in the “Other” submenu, there are some items that allow you to click and drag sections of the circuit around. Save your work before trying these.

The File menu allows you to import or export circuit description files. Java security restrictions usually prevent an applet from writing files to a user’s computer. So instead, when you select the File->Export menu item, the applet brings up a window containing the description file for the circuit, which you can copy and paste into another application. You can paste the file back into the window later and click Import to load it.

The Reset button resets the circuit to a reasonable state. The Stopped checkbox allows you to stop the simulation. The Simulation Speed slider allows you to adjust the speed of the simulation. If the simulation isn’t time-dependent (that is, if there are no capacitors, inductors, or time-dependent voltage sources), then this won’t have any effect. The Current Speed slider lets you adjust the speed of the dots, in case the currents are so weak (or strong) that the dots are moving too slowly (or too quickly).

To edit one of the scope views, click the right mouse button on it to view a menu. The menu items allow you to remove a scope view, speed up or slow down the display, adjust the scale, select what value(s) you want to view, etc.

Here are some errors you might encounter when using the simulator:

· Voltage source loop with no resistance! – this means one of the voltage sources in your circuit is shorted. Make sure there is some resistance across every voltage source.

· Capacitor loop with no resistance! – it’s not allowed to have any current loops containing capacitors but no resistance. For example, capacitors connected in parallel are not allowed; you must put a resistor in series with them. Shorted capacitors are allowed.

· Singular matrix! – this means that your circuit is inconsistent (two different voltage sources connected to each other), or that the voltage at some point is undefined. It might mean that some component’s terminals are unconnected; for example, if you create an op-amp but haven’t connected anything to it yet, you will get this error.

· Convergence failed! – this means the simulator can’t figure out what the state of the circuit should be. Just click Reset and hopefully that should fix it. Your circuit might be too complicated, but this happens sometimes even with the examples.

· Transmission line delay too large! – the transmission line delay is too large compared to the timestep of the simulator, so too much memory would be required. Make the delay smaller.

· Need to ground transmission line! – the bottom two wires of a transmission line must always be grounded in this simulator.
