Key Features

CHOOSE from SPICE or piecewise linear SIMPLIS models for fast, accurate results

MODEL a wide variety of analog systems using standard or Microchip proprietary component models

GENERATE time or frequency domain responses for open- and closed-loop systems

PERFORM AC, DC and transient analysis

USE sweep modes to identify circuit sensitivities to device behaviors, load variations, or tolerances

VALIDATE system resonse, control and stability

IDENTIFY problems before building hardware

Did you simulate that?

Reduce circuit design time and design risk by simulating analog circuits prior to hardware prototyping with MPLAB Mindi Analog Simulator. The simulation tool uses a SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation environment, with options to use SPICE or piecewise linear modeling and is paired with proprietary model files from Microchip to model specific Microchip analog components in addition to generic circuit devices. MPLAB Mindi Analog Simulator installs and runs locally on your PC which allows for fast and accurate analog circuit simulation.

PCB footprints and schematic symbols are available for download in a vendor-neutral format that can then be exported to the leading EDA CAD/CAE design tools using the Ultra Librarian Reader. The Ultra Librarian Reader is a subset of the Ultra Librarian toolset that can generate, import and export components and their attributes in virtually any EDA CAD/CAE format. Footprints generated by Ultra Librarian are based on the IPC-7351 specification.
