DESCRIPTION
DoCircuits is the first web-based circuit simulator which can be customized and integrated for provide practice to ECE/EE/CE courses. DoCircuits is completely web-based, which not only means it’s cross-platform (Windows/Mac/Linux) and requires no installation or plug-ins, but also means that all the circuits you choose to can be shared by just copy & pasting a URL! In addition to being a great tool for learning and experimenting, DoCircuits can also help you answer everyday questions that come up when building circuits to help the learner learn by exploration and feedback. DoCircuits can be integrated with an LMS to provide seamless integration with existing course delivery mechanisms. An instructor can create practice assignments and share them with his/her students. Using such practice based platforms enables students to learn more effectively and acquire the higher learning outcomes as required by a course.

Using Cloud Based Simulation for Learning Electronics
ELECTRONICS LABS ARE EXPENSIVE TO SCALE
ONLY 2 HOURS
WORK IN GROUPS ONLY DURING DAY
WIRING A CIRCUIT IN LAB TAKES LONG
COMPONENTS FAIL, TAKES TIME TO DEBUG
STUDENT AFRAID TO EXPLORE
COMPLIMEMT WITH VIRTUAL ELECTRONICS

HOW TO USE THEM
• FOR HOMEWORK ASSIGNMENTS– makes homework more like lab experience
• FOR PRE LAB – Lab can then be done faster
• FOR POST LAB– Not all experiments can be carried out in the lab
due to time/component restrictions
• FOR TEACHING– Saves time for teacher, no need to draw and
increases student understanding in class
HOW IS IT DIFFERENT FROM OTHERS LIKE PSPICE, MULTISIM ?
WE ARE THE ONLY AND MOST USED CIRCUIT SIMULATION TOOL ON THE CLOUD
THIS MEANS…
STUDENTS CAN SAVE THEIR CIRCUITS ON THE CLOUD RIGHT FROM THE FIRST YEAR AND RETRIEVE AND REFER THE CIRCUITS WHENEVER THEY WANT. CREATE A DIGITAL PORTFOLIO.
LICENSE TO EACH AND EVERY STUDENT AND FACULTY
HOMEHOSTEL
LAB
CAMPUS
STUDENTS ARE NOT LIMITED TO ACCESSING THE TOOL FROM THEIR LAB. THEY CAN ACCESS IT USING THEIR LOGIN/PASSWORD FROM HOME, HOSTEL, CAMPUS AND LAB, 24 X 7.
ONLINE AND OFFLINE ACCESS
EVERY STUDENT GETS AN OFFLINE ACCESS AND ONLINE ACCESS. THEY CAN INSTALL OFFLINE IN ANY 1 COMPUTER OF THEIR CHOICE. SEAMLESSLY WORK BETWEEN OFFLINE AND ONLINE.
WE ARE THE ONLY SIMULATOR WHICH OFFERS CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS
CUSTOMIZED CIRCUITS AS PER CURRICULUM COVERING LAB EXPERIMENTS AND ADDITIONAL EXPERIMENTS IN CLOSE CONSULTATION WITH FACULTY.
STATE OF THE ARTVIRTUAL DEVICES
WE PARTNER WITH COMPANIES LIKE TEKTRONIX TO BRING IN THEIR LATEST DEVICES – SCOPES, AWG, DMM, SUPPLY IN SIMULATION. STUDENTS GET MORE COMFORTABLE WITH USING SUCH DEVICES IN REAL LIFE.
SHARING CIRCUITS ONLINE
SHARE CIRCUITS AND ITS RESULTS ONLINE WITH TEACHER AND OTHER STUDENTS USING A “SINGLE URL”.
VERY EASY TO USE !
EASY TO USE CONTROLS, INTELLIGENT WORKFLOW INTEGRATION, SINGLE BUTTON RUN FUNCTIONALITY, ETC MAKES DOCIRCUITS THE EASIEST TOOL TO USE COMPARED TO ANY OTHER TOOLS.

Confirmations
• Simulation on the cloud was most effective at helping students to better understand how circuit devices work
• In-class use of simulation helped them to better understand concepts as they are presented.
• Liked being able to use the simulator to verify their homework solutions and to experiment with “what-if” situations on their own
• Cloud – anywhere and anytime access impacted outcomes very positively
