Dow Jones Description

Spectrum Software has released Micro-Cap 9, the ninth generation of our SPICE circuit simulator. For users of previous Micro-Cap versions, check out the new features available in the latest version. For those of you who are new to Micro-Cap, take our features tour to see what Micro-Cap has to offer. Spectrum Software was founded in February of 1980 by Andy Thompson to provide software for personal computers. Initially, the company concentrated on providing software for Apple II systems. One of the earliest products was Logic Designer and Simulator. Released in June 1980, this product was the first integrated circuit editor and logic simulation system available for personal computers. In many ways it was the forerunner of the Micro-Cap products. Its primary goal was to provide a "circuit creation and simulation" environment for digital simulation. In August of 1981, the analog equivalent of the first program, Circuit Designer and Simulator, was released. Its integrated text editor created circuit descriptions for a simple, linear, analog simulator. September of 1982 saw the release of the first Micro-Cap package. The first program to offer a "sketch and simulate" motif, it provided a schematic editor which created netlists for the companion simulator to analyze. It also included an improved nonlinear simulator, based upon the modified nodal circuit formulation and backward Euler integration techniques...
