Top 10 NI Multisim Educational FeaturesOverviewEngage students and reinforce theory with a hands-on approach using NI Multisim, an easy-to-useinteractive circuit teaching and student learning environment. Developed for academia, Multisim containsspecific features that assist educators with delivering course content and provides students an interactivelearning environment to visualize and investigate circuit behavior.

Ability to Reinforce Theory with Interactive Circuit SimulationMultisim is an easy-to-use circuit teaching environment that simplifies circuit design by abstracting thecomplexity of SPICE simulation with a fully interactive simulator. You can bring circuit concepts to lifethrough simulation without worrying about SPICE syntax. With Multisim, students can focus onunderstanding the circuit concepts instead of getting frustrated with learning the environment. They canmodify circuit values on the fly and see the simulation results change in real time. Having students explore"what if' scenarios using simulation reinforces the concepts taught in the classroom or lab.Explore circuit simulation with the Multisim interactive demo

Data Visualization Data with 20 Powerful AnalysesHelp students gain intuition for circuit behavior through the in-depth analysis of circuits using 20 powerfulMultisim analyses, including transient analysis, noise, Monte Carlo, worst case, and I-V analyzer. Yourstudents can explore how different configurations, component selections, noise, and signal sources affectcircuit designs. Visualize this data in the NI Grapher, which displays data, annotates with labels, exports tovarious fi le formats, and more.Watch a demo of the new GrapherSee a list of Multisim analyses

Ability to Compare Simulated Data and Real Measurements fromNI ELVIS inside MultisimYou can now make the jump from circuit simulation in Multisim to real-world circuits with one click of themouse. With the launch of Multisim 10.1 and the NI Educational Laboratory Virtual Instrumentation SuiteII (NI ELVIS II), National Instruments offers a new approach to hands-on learning by helping students bridgethe gap between theory and the real world. They can simulate the theoretical concepts in Multisim, prototypethe actual circuit with NI ELVIS, and compare the simulation with real-world measurements inside theMultisim environment using the NI ELVIS schematic and NI ELVIS virtual instruments.Take a guided tour of the NI electronics education platform
