TI Tina Circuit simulator Software review and tutorial

TI Tina as is described on the Texas Instruments website is a free analog simulator . TI TINA SPICE-Based Analog Simulation Program is designed and distributed by Desig-Soft and Texas Instruments and is available for download in a free version, but you can update it to a paid version which include more features and libraries .
The interface of the TINA-TI SPICE-Based Analog Simulation Program is very nice and easy to use . You can draw a circuit in few minutes , without to require some special documenation about this software .
TINA TI spice software overview
As you can see in the screen shoot picture , in the top of the window is the main menu and bellow the main menu is an icon menu that helps you to place all require components .
The analysis options available in the TINA-Ti SPICE software are :
Errors Rules Check , DC Analysis , AC Analysis , Transient Analysis , Fouries Analysis , Noise Analysis .
Also you have other useful virtual tools that are required for circuit analysis : Multimeter , Osciloscope , Function Generator , Signal Analyzer .
If you navigate on the Tina-TI SPICE software you will see that you can generate Nets list , Bill of Materials or you can import Nets list , graphics .
To see how Tina Ti works we prepared a small video .
Tina-Ti SPICE-Based Analog Simulation Program can be downloaded from the Design-Soft homepage or from the Texas Instruments website .
If you test it you will see that TINA-TI is a powerful circuit design and simulation tool that is ideal for designing, testing, and troubleshooting a broad variety of basic and advanced circuits, without any node or number of device limitations.
TINA is an easy-to-use, but very powerful, circuit simulation program based on a SPICE engine.
Minimum hardware and software requirements for TINA-TI are : 64MB of RAM , Hard disk drive with at least 100MB free space , Mouse , VGA adapter card and monitor , Microsoft Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP .
TINA is a product of DesignSoft and this special complimentary version, TINA-TI, is prepared by DesignSoft exclusively for Texas Instruments.
TINA-TI version 7.0 is preloaded with TI analog macromodels that has been tested and the test schematics are available in the tool.
Many Application Schematics are available for download and simulation in TINA-TI .These files are available in folders within the “Examples” folder of the TINA-TI program software.
Also on the Texas Instruments website on TI E2E™ Community you can find new simulation models or/and simulation circuits .
If you require support for TINA TI software , you can find on the Texas instruments website a small startup guide or you can visit the community section from the TI website where you can ask about how to solve your TINA-TI problems .
