- DC CIRCUIT ANALYSIS
- Version 1.4, March 1995
- Copyright 1991-1995, Arthur Tanzella
- All Rights Reserved
-
- The DC Circuit Analysis program contains over 100 files occupying
- approximately 800 KB of disk space, and compressed into a single self-
- extracting file called "INSTALL.EXE." This file was created using the
- LHarc version 2.11 program, which is a copyright reserved freeware program
- written by Haruyasu Yoshizaki.
-
- To run the program, requires a 286 or later microprocessor, an EGA or VGA
- graphics' adapter with 256 KB of RAM installed, and a color monitor. It
- also requires between 300 KB and 350 KB of available RAM after DOS, drivers
- and Terminate and Stay Resident (TSR) programs are loaded. The actual
- amount of RAM required depends on the complexity of the circuit, and
- whether on not EMS memory is available.
-
- To install the program, you must specify a drive with or without a
- directory on the command line as follows:
-
- INSTALL C: or INSTALL C:\DC14
-
- It will create a directory called DC14 on the specified drive. If you
- specify a directory, it will create the specified directory (if necessary)
- and the DC14 subdirectory below the specified directory.
-
- To use the program I recommend you print all the documentation files. The
- DC.DOC documentation file includes a tutorial on semiconductors, logic, and
- digital computer circuits. The documentation uses the IBM extended
- character set. If you have an HP LaserJet printer, you should either set
- the default symbol set to "PC8," or copy the following file to the printer
- before printing the documentation files:
-
- COPY /B LASERJET.BIN PRN
-
- This file can be found in the same directory as the document files. To
- print all the documentation files, I suggest using the following command:
-
- COPY *.DOC PRN
-
- To start the program, change the default directory to the directory
- containing the DC.EXE program, and type "DC" as follows:
-
- CD \DC
- DC
-
- You can now choose a sample circuit and analyze it. To exit a screen use
- the "ESC" key. At the opening menu choose "Exit."
