While the power-off button can turn the circuit off, any action like asking for a solution, equation or graph turns it on again. Well, of course, the solution tab is a quick and sure-shot way of finding out if the circuit is solved. It also spells out the states of circuit components, if different, along with explicit values of every parameter discussed. The solution can check errors in signs, issues with homogeneity or incorrect application of standard laws like Kirchoff’s rules. If complex and time consuming, a wait window appears as a warning to you alongside an option to stop the process. By defining a formula for each of the necessary calculations and assigning it newly-defined quantities in the circuit, computations are automatically performed each time the circuit is solved. Manually calculating these for each iteration of the design is even more tedious. These could be something as simple as power dissipated by a resistor, or intense like the loading effect at the output. Of course, the idea behind simulating a circuit is not only to verify its correctness, but also to compute parameters that cannot be measured directly. Also available is a probe that can be used to measure the potential at a point, be it on a wire or at a terminal. Calculated using a formal calculus engine, this comes in handy while manually verifying equations, drawing graphs and so on.Īs always, potential reference is taken with respect to the ground terminal, and nodes can be named using point labels. Computed quantities are accompanied by their values and formulae used to calculate these, in a window called Solution.

Solve Elec comes with a well-defined set of measuring instruments like the ammeter and the voltmeter, which can be included at necessary regions in the design.
