Predicting the behavior of an electronic circuit using simulation tools enables us to run experiments, explore a larger set of alternatives, and verify results quickly and inexpensively.
Most modern circuit simulators are based on the SPICE (Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis) simulator, developed at UC Berkeley, and first presented in 1973. In this tutorial, we will use ngspice, and just like the original Berkeley SPICE, it is open source.
