SPICE is a general-purpose circuit simulation program for nonlinear dc,
|
|
|
|
|
nonlinear transient, and linear ac analyses. Circuits may contain resistors,
|
|
|
|
|
capacitors, inductors, mutual inductors, independent voltage and current
|
|
|
|
|
sources, four types of dependent sources, lossless and lossy transmission
|
|
|
|
|
lines (two separate implementations), switches, uniform distributed RC
|
|
|
|
|
lines, and the five most common semiconductor devices: diodes, BJTs, JFETs,
|
|
|
|
|
MESFETs, and MOSFETs.

With this release, the University of California will no longer
|
|
|
|
|
be providing technical support for Spice3, and no plans have been made
|
|
|
|
|
for providing support any time in the future. Some work on Spice3 will
|
|
|
|
|
continue (notably the BSIM-3 model and perhaps other device models).
