Electronics Circuit Simulation Using Kicad 10 : Volume 1
Overview
Explore electronic circuits, test your ideas, and understand how they work with Electronics Circuit Simulation Using KiCad 10 - First Edition, Volume 1. This practical guide introduces circuit simulation through KiCad 10 and its integrated SPICE tools, connecting electronic theory with schematic design, simulation, and interpretation of results.
Follow step-by-step examples covering DC circuit analysis, transient behaviour, and AC frequency response. Build your understanding through resistor networks, RC circuits, diodes, transistors, operational amplifiers, power supplies, and digital and mixed-signal circuits. Schematics, plots, formulas, and worked calculations help explain what each circuit does-and why.
Learn how to select and connect SPICE models, configure voltage sources, choose analysis settings, and measure circuit behaviour. Compare simulation results with hand calculations, investigate unexpected waveforms, and recognise the assumptions and limitations behind a model. Dedicated troubleshooting guidance helps you work through common problems, including missing models, floating nodes, convergence failures, and misleading results.
Written for students, electronics hobbyists, educators, and technicians, this book provides a structured path into simulation without assuming previous SPICE experience. Basic familiarity with voltage, current, resistance, and simple circuits will help you get started. Practical exercises, review questions, reference tables, and a glossary support both independent study and classroom learning.
Use simulation to ask better questions before building: What should happen? What does the result show? Which assumptions need checking? Develop a repeatable workflow of calculating, simulating, measuring, and comparing-and approach your next electronics project with a clearer understanding of its behaviour.
