5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the money, February 22, 2000

This review is from: Schematic Capture with MicroSim PSpice for Windows Version 3.1 (4th Edition) (Textbook Binding)

This book was the best book I have used for PSpice. Software was easy to install and examples were very easy to follow. Examples covered almost all topics I was interested in. If you need a recommendation on a good PSpice book this is it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Of several books on PSpice on my shelf, Herniter's is best., May 21, 1999

This review is from: Schematic Capture With Microsim Pspice (Paperback)

Written as an academic lab manual, it works as well for a small business designer, as I am. It's both a tutorial and reference for PSpice ver 7.1 that's included, but is applicable also to PSpice ver8, especially if you contact the author's Web site for his excellent ver8 support materials. I'm looking forward to Herniter's next edition.

1.0 out of 5 stars This book and software combination require MAJOR updates., June 14, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Schematic Capture With Microsim Pspice (Paperback)

The self help guide becomes virtually useless in Chapter 2, in which the sample circuits provided for evaluation have key components which are not supported by the software. Chapter 2 is supposed to teach the user how to utilize the circuit analysis tool called "Probe", however, since neither sample circuit is supported by the software, the chapter becomes an effort in futility. I would not recommend this book to anyone who is interested in learning MicroSim Pspice.
