Lab 8: Pspice

Introduction:
The purpose of this lab is to study the application named Pspice. Students will learn how to use Pspice to analysis different circuits  and use it to find the Thevenin and Maximum Power Transfer to a Load.

Procedure:
Analysis simple circuits:

Using Parameter to graph the maximum power to the Load:

Using Parameter Sweep to find Maximum Power

 Using Pspice to find Thevenin and Norton equivalent:

Vth = zero intercept =  10 V
Rth = slope = (13.3 -10)/1 = 3.3 Ohm

I_N = zero intercept = 3 A  ;
 G_N = slope = (3.3 - 3)/1 = 0.3 S


Maximum Power Transfer to R_L:

Maximum power: 7.5W
