Abstract PSpice (Personal Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) is an industry-standard simulation tool for analog and mixed-signal circuits. For students, hobbyists, and engineers, the process of getting PSpice onto a personal computer involves selecting the correct version, meeting system requirements, and navigating licensing. This paper provides a concise methodology for successfully installing PSpice on a modern Windows PC.
