Proteus Circuit Design Guide

This document provides instructions for using Proteus software to design electronic circuits. It outlines how to open and create a new project in Proteus, select components like resistors and voltage sources, place them on the schematic page, connect the components to create a circuit, edit component values, and use virtual instruments to simulate and measure the circuit. The instructions are accompanied by figures to illustrate each step, like how to select components from the library and change their properties. The overall process taught is how to design and simulate a basic resistor circuit using Proteus' schematic capture and simulation features.

Introduction to Proteus

Introduction
Proteus is the software tool suite used primarily to design electronic design automation. This software is
used mainly by electronics design engineers and technicians to create schematics and electronics prints
for manufacturing Printed Circuit Boards (PCB).

Getting started with Proteus

1) Open the Proteus software named “Proteus 8”. A window as shown in Figure 1 will appear on
your desktop screen.

Figure 1 Main Window.

2) Look at the main window go to start  new project a window as shown in figure 2 will appear on
your screen. Name the project and select directory/Path that you want to save. Then click next.
Figure 2 Project Creation

3) In the next window select create schematic  next  create PCB  next  new frim project 
next  Finish
4) A window as shown in figure 3 will appear on your screen. Now click onto the schematic capture
Figure 3Main window

5) On this window you can draw your circuit. In order to draw the simple resistive circuit you have
to choose resistor from the P button of GUI of the software as show in Figure 4.

Figure 4 Component Selection

6) In order to select electrical component click the P button of GUI. Another window as shown in
Figure 3 will appear on your screen. Let suppose you need a resistor just type “RES” or “Resistor”
in the keyword menu. On the right side of your screen where Device, Library and Description is
written just double click below the description. Then click OK.

Figure 5 Resistor Selection

7) Now look (left side) on the main window (below the P button) a component named “Res” has
been selected. Now select another component named “VSource” by repeating the step 3.
8) To drag the components in the drawing portion just click the component (selected in the step 3
and step 4). A led pencil is shown when you move the mouse. Click the pencil specifically on the
Blue squared portion of the screen. Congratulation you have placed your first component on the
screen. Look at Figure 6
Figure 6 Component Placement

9) A resistor value of 10K is placed. Let suppose you want to change the value of resistor, bring your
mouse on to the component and double click. A window as shown in Figure 5 will appear on your
screen. In this window you can change the value and name of the component just type from the
keyboard. You can change the position or rotation of the component just right click from the
mouse by placing mouse on to the component. A dialogue box will appear in front of you. Now
it’s up to you to explore it.

10) Now select the Vsource component and place it on the screen. Change the value of resistor t0
4.7K and value of voltage to 10V by repeating step 5 and 6.
11) My next step is to connect the circuit. As you see that components have two terminals. Just click
on one terminal a wire from that terminal is selected drag this wire to another terminal of the
different component. Now you have connect your circuit. Have a look on Figure 6.

12) In order to measure Voltage across and current through the resistor you have to need DC
Voltmeter and DC Ammeter. To select Voltmeter go to virtual instrument mode as shown in
Figure 7 first select Voltmeter and connect In parallel and run the simulation.

Figure 9 Simulation Results

13) Now connect Ammeter in series by repeating the step 10. Congratulation you measured and
created the schematic on software.
