Abstract

In digital circuit experiment teaching, the traditional single practice teaching mode is limited by the number, type, time, and location of experimental equipment, which leads to the solidification of experimental items and the difficulty in completing the comprehensive experiment that is crucial to improve students’ ability, thus resulting in unsatisfactory experimental results. However, at this time, it is possible to solve this problem by using Multisim simulation software to assist experimental teaching. In this paper, through the analysis and discussion of the comprehensive experiment example of using Multisim14.0 software to design the three-way time-limited rushanswering device, the breadth and depth of the experiment are expanded. The design is convenient and reliable and the simulation analysis is accurate, which can quickly meet the design requirements and help students better understand the working principle of digital circuits. At the same time, it effectively mobilized the enthusiasm and subjective initiative of students, laying a good foundation for the design and production of electronic circuits. It is thus concluded that Multisim simulation software is an effective tool to cultivate students’ ability to analyze, solve problems, and practice.
