Introduction to Ansys Simplorer (Self-paced Learning Available)
Following completion of this course, you will be able to:
- Understand GUI and the basic behavior of simple components
- Build up circuits setting the needed quantities for successful simulation
- Post process results
- Create control logic (state diagrams) and how to control devices
- Build new components using VHDL-AMS language and increase the component libraries
