                      HELLO MY FRIEND !

 

              ARE YOU LOOKING FOR A SIMULATION SOFTWARE ?

 

Then you are in a right place , i have attached the link for downloding  TINA students Version For FREE 👇

 

before installing you should know that. How it will work and How we want to use it , etc...

                        Here is Some of the  important and Basic Tutorials

What is TINA ?

Toolkit for Interactive Network Analysis (TINA) is a SPICE-based electronics design and training software by DesignSoft of Budapest.Its features include analog, digital, and mixed circuit simulations, and printed circuit board (PCB) design.

How it can be Used ?

Part A: Getting Started

To begin, Keep in mind  the program can be correctly installed. and The hardware requirements are listed below:

 · 64MB of RAM 

· Pentium processor 

· Hard drive with at least 100MB

Part B: Schematic Editing

Once the program is finished installing on your computer, there should be a new

icon on your desktop labeled “Tina-TI” as shown below

Click the icon to start the program, the schematic editor window will open up as shown below

overview of TINA-TI

   these are the basic fundamental parts of the simulator that you will use to create and simulate your circuit schematic. In the middle of the window is the work space plane in which you will lay out your different components to construct your circuit. The components can be selected in the components tool bar labeled above then dragged and dropped into the workspace plane. The components are separated into different categories, and those categories can be selected with the different tabs labeled above. There are six main categories that you can choose from (Basic, Switches, Meters, sources, Semiconductors, and Spice Macros). Above the components tool bar is the editing tool bar which has options such as mirror, rotate, search, save etc. The top tool bar is where you can select your basic functions such as file operations, as well as selections for tools, analysis, and virtual measurements.

Adding Components

After you feel comfortable with the basic functions of the editor, we can now move on to the next step which will be building the circuit. The following will take you through the initial steps of constructing an analog circuit. We are going to construct the schematic of simple high-pass filter as an example. First we must select the key component of our circuit, the op amp. 

The OPA743 CMOS op amp is chosen by referring to the circuit application specification. This op amp needs a voltage supply range from 3.5V to 12V to operate so we will supply it with ± 5V AC voltage source. 

1. In the category’s tab select Spice Macros. Once the macro components are shown, select the op amp library

2. With the library window is open, select Texas Instruments under the manufacturer pull down

3.Scroll down in the library window until you find the OPA743, select it as shown in Figure 4 and then click OK.

 4. The component footprint will appear in the work space plane. Drag and drop it to a desired location leaving room to add components later.

                                                    selection of components

Components are easy to select from different categories as illustrated in the previous section. These categories contain many passive and active components. Left clicking on a schematic symbol for a particular component selects it. Once selected, drag the component into a position, placing it so there is a decent amount of space between it and other components. Then left click again to place it. Continuing with the construction of our circuit schematic, let’s add a 15kΩ resistor which will be connected to the (-) leg of the op amp.

1. Under the Basic category tab, select the resistor symbol then drag and drop the footprint into the work space  

2. Double-click the resistor to bring up its parameters window. Under the Resistance parameter enter 15k to set the value then click Ok. 

3. Next select the “Jumper” symbol , then drag and drop the footprint into the work space. You will have to right click the jumper and rotate it 9 | P a g e Kyle Christian Team #7 to make it symmetrical to fit on the V+ terminal. Once rotated drag and drop the jumper so that the connection end is on the V+ terminal. Repeat this for the Vterminal. Jumpers will be explained in the next section. 

4. Continue to drag and drop the rest of the components needed for the high-pass filter

Schematic Wiring and Connection 

Once you have placed all of the needed components for the high-pass filter into your work space plane, the next step is to arrange them in a position so that you have a clean schematic and then wire the different nodes together. Each component has connection node/s which are marked by the red “x’s” 

The process is very simple to wire one node to another. Simply place your cursor over the connection node of the component you wish to wire, your cursor will change to a pencil symbol. Once this happens left click and a wire trace will follow your cursor wherever you drag it. Take the wire to the connecting component and it should ‘snap’ to the node. 

When arranging and wiring your circuit, a good tip to keep in mind is to give yourself enough room between components to make clear and easy connections. Below are some more important tips to help you avoid make errors in your circuit layout. 

1. Some components have such as voltage sources, and voltage generators shown in Figure 6 have their polarity marked by a (+) symbol. Make sure your components are directions are correct to the circuit design to save time before you proceed. (Adjust direction by right clicking and select Rotate/Mirror) 

2. When making parallel connections (wire-to-wire) TINA-TI confirms connection points with a “black dot”. An example of this can be seen in Figure 6 between R2 and the output of the OPA743. 

3. If your circuit is very complex, clustered, or busy a good tool to use is the “Junction” components that we added earlier. Junctions are used to connect distant nodes to one another. Our high-pas filter is a very simple design and is just being used for reference but junctions are very helpful if you want to separate phases of a circuit or, distribute one power supply over many areas of a circuit instead of having multiple ones, or just if you want to give your schematic a lean look like we did here. Junctions with the same label will connect to one another as demonstrated

4. Finally Label your components to your desired liking so you can identify them easier.

Build the high-pass circuit Once you have made all the connections and have it laid out similarly, make sure to go through each node and check that all your components are connected to one another to save time in the up coming steps.
