Course Name: Electrical Circuits-2 (Lab)
Course Code: EEE201
Section No: 01
Experiment No: 02
Name of the Experiment: PSpice Simulation of Simple AC
Circuits
Date of Performance: 28-06-2022
Date of Submission: 22-7-2022

OBJECTIVE:
The objective of this experiment is to learn how to use PSpice to
simulate AC circuits.
We used Pspice to Calculate the current I, voltage across the
resistance VR, across the inductance VL, and across the
capacitance VC. We can also calculate the phase difference
between the current and the input voltage and between the current
and the voltages across resistor, capacitor and inductor.
The purpose of this experiment is to determine analytically
impedance, both magnitude from voltage and current signals.
From this experiment we can read characteristics of AC circuit
from pspice and match the values with their corresponding
measured values.

Procedure:
Circuit drawing:
1. Draw the circuit shown in Fig. 1 in Schematics window. The
voltage source V1 in the circuit is VSIN.
2. Double click on the voltage source and set VOFF = 0, VAMPL
= 10, and FREQ =100. Save the settings.
3. Click on Analysis → Setup. Click on Transient. Set Print Step =
1ns and Final Time = 30ms. Click OK then close. Save the
circuit setup.
4. Simulate the circuit and observe the input voltage signal (V1)
shape. To plot the input signal, click on add trace and select
V(V1:+) - V(V1:-).
5. Keep the input voltage signal in the plot. Add the current signal
multiplied by 10 (i.e. I(R1)*10) in the plot. (Multiplication of
the current signal by 10 is for better view with the voltage
signal.)

Discussion:
AC circuit keep changing his measurement always. Our
main work is to identify the most stable point of signal to
find our measure values. So, whenever we calculate the
data we get a little differences which is not more then
10%..

Conclusion:
From this experiment we can learn how to observe
sinusoidal signal in the pspice by using an ac circuit. We
can know which signal is leading and which one is
lagging. We also can know how to measure phase
different and character of an ac circuit. We can figure out
frequency and impedance by calculation
