Hi! Where can I download a copy of PSPICE?
Thanks.
Thanks.

If you want a good PSPICE compatible spice implementation, that
is available for no charge, try doing a google on: Linear Technology SwitcherCAD

Just doing a google search using the keywords "download pspice" I found
quite a few student versions available.

Ok, I'll bite, why would anyone want a clipped down student version when
a complete professional spice that is compatible with PSPICE is available
from Linear Technology for free?

Don't you find LTSpice's schematic entry kind of awkward compared to
pspice? Sure it's better and I use it instead of Pspice, but...
The OP specifically asked for pspice, so just trying to accommodate...
"Lord, I appologize for that...that just ain't right...and be with the
starvin' pygmies in New Guinea. Amen!"

PSpice (it's been around a lot longer than LTSpice has) and most people would
rather bug their classmates/professor if something doesn't work than take
their chances in the Internet (and most professors take a very hands-off
approach on actively changing software they've been using for a decade) or (2)
it has some feature you need (again because your school is using them), such
as support for specific transistor level models that LTSpice doesn't.
For a home hobbyist, I can't imagine when you'd head the PSpice route.
Oh yeah, one final reason... when I was in graduate school, it was required
that you use *HSpice* (which, although quite powerful in absolute terms, is
crap on a power per dollar scale) for your designs so that all the results
could be compared "fairly" (the assignments were to design, e.g., an op-amp or
something with whatever specs, and in general the specs were somewhat
difficult to meet at *all* -- many people didn't, but still get plenty of
partial credit and did fine in the class -- and they didn't want the choice to
simulator to place into how well you did).

teacher would have told her where she could get it.
I guess I will have to let the OP speak for herself.

All that is well and good, but the OP didn't ask for PSPICE educational, she
asked for PSPICE. If she was in school, and using PSPICE educational (and she

Just kidding...

Wasn't there some rumor that Cadence was going to change the ORCAD Capture
backend simulator to HSpice?
Just kidding...
