Students, profe ssional s and hobbyi sts already familiar with traditional methods of circuit analysis will find PSpice to be an important tool for learning circuit analysis and design and for testing electronic circuits in ways they could not easily do in many laboratories. Anyone performing circuit analysis or design should have a working knowledge of PSpice in order to save time and gain insight into circuit behavior by answering "what if' questions with a computer simulation. PSpice from Cadence Design Systems is a version of SPICE that runs on personal computers and offers many features, component libraries and tools for circuit designers. Fast-forward to today, and SPICE, along with its derivatives, is hugely popular for predicting the behavior of electronic circuits. Now engineers could create, analyze and modify circuits using software, coming much closer to the final design before soldering a single component.

In the 1970s, scientists at the Universit y of California, Berkeley, developed Simulated Program 'with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE), a program for simulating circuits on a mainframe computer. The time-honored way to do this was to build a physical prototype, test it over a range of range of operating voltages, signal levels, temperatures and other factors, tweak it and test some more.
