MultiSIM® by Electronics Workbench is a software simulation tool that can be used to reinforce the theory presented in each chapter of the textbook. It provides an accurate simulation of digital and analog circuit operation, along with a simulation of instruments used by a technician to measure IC, component, and circuit characteristics. With this software, you have the ability to build and test most of the circuits presented in this text. The problems at the end of each chapter in your text are based on circuit files found on the CD that is included with the textbook. The circuit files are on the CD in the subdirectory called MultiSIM_Problems. The problems are based on the circuits and theory presented in the section corresponding to the file name. Before attempting any MultiSIM problem, you must thoroughly understand the material presented in that textbook section. The problem definition for each MultiSIM circuit is fully explained in the Description Window that appears in each circuit file. The problems are basically of three types: (1) Circuit interaction problems require the student to change input values and take measurements at the outputs to verify circuit operation; (2) Design problems require the student to design, or modify, a circuit to perform a particular task; and (3) Troubleshooting problems require the student to find and fix the fault that exists in the circuit that is given. In addition to containing the circuit files, the CD includes the Enhanced Textbook Edition of MultiSIM 2001® by Electronics Workbench. This edition of MultiSIM is all that is required to open and work with all of the circuit files. However, anyone who wishes to order the full version of MultiSIM may do so through Prentice Hall by visiting http://www.prenhall.com, phoning 1-800-282-0693, or sending a fax request to 1-800-835-5327. Technical questions relating specifically to MultiSIM can be referred to Electronics Workbench by writing to support@electronicsworkbench.com.
