5. Schematic: To set some min and max limits for a voltage, current or power (they shall be visible in Grapher when you generate the plot).

4. Schematic: To add operating state annotation for transistors (active, cutt-off, saturated).

3. Schematic: To add active probe (see CircuitMaker 2000 solution).

 

With the 14 version release there are probes feature added that I did not have a chance to evalute however probe can be moved dynamically to the specific net to check a signal level (voltage or current) or when you place on a component so power dissipation can be measured and showed (power dissipation vs time).

18. Model: To add a module that can build a component model from characteristics from datasheet (eg. to track output voltage characteristics of voltage regulator and to build behavioral model).

15. Interface: Batched analysis is fine, but it would be a good to see TEMP parameter visible in main window.

11. Simulation: To add component stress analysis but more advanced. The goal is to check maximum dissipated power according to derating power characteristics for resistors according to current operating temperature (TEMP parameter for circuit simulation) and maximum voltage for a components (resistors, capacitors).

10. Simulation: To add additional drift tolerance (aging, humidity etc.) option for a components (resistors and capacitors). Please create an option to turn ON and turn OFF additional drifts globally for a whole circuit design and for specific component.

6. Simulation: To add circuit optimizer with various algorithms: Hooke and Jeeves, Levenberg-Marquardt etc.

So far so good.

It would be awesome if Multisim Live included also the Multimeter feature, as the PC software.

 

Cheers

i am looking forward to see sensors and transducers in Multisim, for example models of thermocouples, NTC and PTC , LDR, even ultrasonic sensors  and LVDT can be easily added to Multisim. 

also i am waiting to improve the microphone model so that we can use it immediately in the circuit.  Further more, we are looking forward to Arduino in multisim.

I am using Multim Touch form the applestore and I am very satisfied. But...

How about a Pro version of Multisim Touch with a price tag around 30.0 U$S but with more capabilities

like being able to use self-defined models, having some more components form the beginnig and being able

to exchange files (like models for instance) over iTunes in the App section.

I think educators and hobbyst would most likely be very inetersted.

 
 
 

Recently in class we were using the Signal Generator and the Bode Plotter.  It made it somewhat difficult to get the correct readings because the live version does not include an option to place an open wire (was using it on an op amp) like in the application version.  It also made it somewhat difficult to change an AC current when involving different equations. Overall I like the Live version.

Hello,

 

I am a noob in electronics and are following along one the popular
books: "Make:Electronics", but this idea is applicable for any textbook in electronics.

Besides actually "breadboarding" the exercises in the book,  i would like to simulate them to get the hang of that side of things also, and after a lot of research, the web interface of "MultiSim Live" seem to be the perfect alternative.

In my case because the "2N6027" PUT component is missing from most competitors, but exist in Multisim Live Premium, and many excercises in the book depend on it.

 

Here is the idea:

 

Would it not be nice if the author could create a temporary subscription in Multisim Live for its subscribers, where only the components in the book are included?

 

The subscriber would still have to pay for it, but for a much smaller price, since it is only make sense if you have the book.

Pros:

- Multisim Live would get great advertisment since the product is referred to throughout the book.

- Beginners like me would not have to worry that we dont find the correct components , since they are listed when you login to multisim with this special subscription package.

- Of course, the author could have pre-made excercises in Multisim live to drive home points

- The opportunities for converting these subscribers to premium subscribers would be endless

 

Cons:

Absolutely zero

 

Please NI make this happen, its a no-brainer 🙂
