Multisim Frequency Response Simulation

In this video, we explore the basics of frequency domain analysis using the Student Edition of the Multisim circuit simulator. Using a simple resistor-capacitor lag network, we create a Bode plot. We also investigate how to make measurements using the cursors along with various ways of customizing the graphical output.

Amazing

[@yoramswiers]

Great tutorial! Helped me designing a filter!

[@ElectronicswithProfessorFiore]

Glad you liked it. You might also be interested in the Op Amps playlist as there are some videos in there on designing active filters.

[@rodriprat]

Great!! Thanks a lot, I was trying to make a sweep frequency signal from the Agilent Function Generator wich is provided in multisim, but I couldnt make it work, have you tried it?

[@ElectronicswithProfessorFiore]

No, I have not tried it. I tend to not use the virtual instruments as I find them to be rather clunky. Personal preference.

Is it possible to perform AC analysis with fixed frequency but variable amplitude?

[@ElectronicswithProfessorFiore]

You could certainly do that manually by running several sims. One thing to remember is that, assuming the circuit is linear, you'll get the same relative results each time (e.g., doubling the input amplitude doubles the output). OTOH, if you're looking for non-linearities at a single frequency, you might be better off using a transient analysis (possibly with THD/Fourier analysis).

Name the program please

Multisim

[@redredbostonelecelec]

its pretty discouraging to lay out a circuit for simulation and discover the component you need has pins missing in my opinion multisim is not worth the money, to some people it may, but to me its not

[@ElectronicswithProfessorFiore]

I certainly understand your frustration. This is one reason that I suggest that students consider using the free version of TINA (TINA-TI, available from the Texas Instruments site).

magnitude must be changed into dB form first.
