We think this tool will be helpful to personnel of all skill levels to quickly perform calculations and eliminate many unsuitable choices. The final decision on wire and circuit protection should come after a review based on additional sources, such as the ABYC standards or one of the many books in the field.
This calculator does not account for all possible variables and factors relevant to the selection of wire size and circuit protection. Such variables may include overloads (such as changing the size of light bulbs or adding additional loads to circuits), wiring errors (such as loose connections or poor crimps), heated terminations (such as motor terminals, heating appliances, or lighting fixtures), data input errors, unusual environmental heat sources, and inadequate or defective wire insulation, software defects, and/or malfunctions of a browser or server computer.
This calculator is not a substitute for the expertise of a marine electrical professional. Under no circumstances should this calculator be used as the sole basis for selecting wire size or circuit protection. Any wire size or circuit protection tentatively selected with this tool should be reviewed for adequacy, before installation, by a professional applying the applicable industry standards.
The DC Circuit Wizard will be helpful for boat owners and boat builders to quickly perform calculations and eliminate many unsuitable circuit protection choices. The final decision on wire and circuit protection should come after a review based on additional sources such as the ABYC standards or the many books on the subject.
Use the Linear Circuit Wizard block to create or modify a linear, time-invariant circuit such as a custom-design filter or a circuit with extracted parasitics. Using this block, you can parse a SPICE netlist file that describes the circuit elements and the circuit nodes. You can then use the block parameter dialog box to refine the input and output ports and to model device noise. You can review the port and device noise definitions from a base workspace output structure.
The Linear Circuit Wizard block sets up and solves linear circuit equations to produce a set of Laplace domain transfer functions. You can review these transfer functions either through magnitude vs. frequency plots or through pole-zero location reports.
The Linear Circuit Wizard block creates and configures a MATLAB System block to represent your circuit as a new block, which is independent of the Linear Circuit Wizard block, in a Simulink model. This MATLAB System block is configured using the port and device noise definitions and the results of the circuit analysis. When you start the simulation, the MATLAB System block uses fixed-step discrete sample time to convert the Laplace domain transfer functions into recursive digital filter coefficients for execution during the simulation.
The Linear Circuit Wizard block solves a linear, time-invariant circuit described by a SPICE netlist. The block supports a limited set of SPICE circuit elements and netlist statement syntaxes. For more information about supported circuit elements and netlist statement syntaxes, see Model Linear Circuit Response from SPICE Netlist.
The most common interface definition for an analog circuit is a set of voltages and currents defined at circuit nodes. To create the interface to digital logic and behavioral models from the interface to analog circuits requires some conversion. The Linear Circuit Wizard block constructs the conversion between ports and analog circuit nodes based on the ports definitions that you supply. This enables the Linear Circuit Wizard block to produce a block in your Simulink model that can be connected directly to other types of blocks. For more information, see Ports Supported in Linear Circuit Wizard.
The Linear Circuit Wizard block can model the noise generated by the transistors and resistors in the analog circuit. The spectral density of the device noise can include accurate modeling of flicker noise. The circuit model includes the transfer function from the device noise source to the circuit ports. For more information, see Define Device Noise Using Linear Circuit Wizard.
The Linear Circuit Wizard block outputs a linear circuit block that can be added to the Simulink model. This block is a MATLAB System block with all the input and output ports defined in the Linear Circuit Wizard block parameter dialog box. The generated block requires a fixed-step discrete sample time, which the block either inherits from the surrounding model or defines for itself. For more information, see MATLAB Systems Generated from Linear Circuit Wizard.
The Linear Circuit Wizard block can generate multiple MATLAB System blocks that represent different linear circuit blocks. Once generated, the MATLAB System blocks are independent of their respective Linear Circuit Wizard blocks.
Independent of the generation of MATLAB System blocks, the Linear Circuit Wizard block can also generate a report for ports of the generated block, a report for poles and zeroes of the entire linear circuit, and plot the transfer functions between the input and output ports. For more information, see Verify MATLAB System Block Configuration.
When I finish with the 8 bit I want to make it more permanent, so I started looking into how to make a PCB. I found something on YouTube, but it seems too easy. The software is called circuit wizard. And it seems all one need do is to copy the components from Ben's schematics into CW, then arrange it the way you want. Next, this is the difficult part to believe, all one need do next is click on 'convert to pcb'. a PCB image will appear, which can be further arranged. I think one can save it as a Gerber file.... finally, it can be sent to a PCB manufacturing company!!!!
Users are able to design circuit diagrams, that the software allows you to test in order to check if they function properly. In case of a successful result, they can convert the diagram to a PCB layout and run a simulation for it as well.
I am using Circuit Wizard Pro for my circuit designs. Unfortunately it does not support the Arduino series in its library for circuit and PCB creation. Therefore I'd have to manually create the arduino as a new component.
What Circuit Wizard does that Wire Sizer does not, is to recommend over-current protection by device for the circuit you are working with. Very cool! Its also available for both Apple or Droid products. Wire Sizer is 99 cents at iTunes. Circuit Wizard is free.
Placing images that represent the electronic components and then linking them defines a virtual circuit. It is like a plan for the system and this schematic entry is the most common way of designing a a circuit in most of the design packages.
A printed circuit board is the most common foundation for electronics systems. Components are placed on the board and the interconnecting tracks are part of the copper layer. These have been defined by a number of processes - mostly chemical etching of the tracks with a soecial mask that leaves the tracks intact but removes the adjoining copper. We do a similar process by engraving.
Electronics is a very exciting subject and has progressed through a number of stages in technology. Initailly mist circuits had a number of integrated circuits that could be set up in special ways to operate a system. These circuits came from transistors and other devices.

SPICE circuit simulation
Circuit Wizard features a new simulation engine based on Berkeley SPICE. This industry-standard technology is the most advanced in the world, so you can be confident that the results it delivers will be very fast and accurate.
Circuit style views
Styles are a powerful feature of Circuit Wizard that allow you to alter the way a circuit looks when it is simulating. There are several preset styles to choose from and you can also create your own.
In electronic systems that combine analog processing with logic gates, several parameters are essential to the overall behavior of the system. These parameters include the finite slew rate of circuit output signals, the propagation delay of signals, and the exact decision threshold of circuit inputs. Add blocks to your model to include these effects in time domain simulations of the system.
