2 Proteus Software

Introduction To Proteus
 Proteus Is Used To Simulate, Design And Drawing Of Electronic Circuits. It Was Invented
By The Labcenter Electronic.
 By Using Proteus You Can Make Two-Dimensional Circuits Designs As Well.
 With The Use Of This Engineering Software, You Can Construct And Simulate Different
Electrical And Electronic Circuits On Your Personal Computers Or Laptops.
 There Are Numerous Benefits To Simulate Circuits On Proteus Before Make Them
Practically.
 Designing Of Circuits On The Proteus Takes Less Time Than Practical Construction Of The
Circuit.
 The Possibility Of Error Is Less In Software Simulation Such As Loose Connection That
Takes A Lot Of Time To Find Out Connections Problems In A Practical Circuit.
 Circuit Simulations Provide The Main Feature That Some Components Of Circuits Are Not
Practical Then You Can Construct Your Circuit On Proteus.
 There Is Zero Possibility Of Burning And Damaging Of Any Electronic Component In
Proteus.
 The Electronic Tools That Are Very Expensive Can Easily Get In Proteus Such As An
Oscilloscope.
 Using Proteus You Can Find Different Parents Of Circuits Such As Current, A Voltage Value
Of Any Component And Resistance At Any Instant Which Is Very Difficult In A Practical
Circuit.

Features Of Proteus
 There Are 2 Main Parts Of Proteus First Is Used To Design And Draw Different Circuits And
The Second Is For Designing Of PCB Layout.
 First Is ISIS That Used To Design And Simulate Circuits. And Second Is ARES That Used
For Designing Of A Printed Circuit Board.
 It Also Provides Features Related To The Three-Dimensional View Of Design In PCB.
Proteus Layout
 Friends, Now We Discuss The Layout Of Proteus And Will Discuss Sections And Their
Functionality In Proteus.
 When You Will Click On The Icone Of Installed Proteus In Your Computer Then You Will
See This Window From A New File Option.
 Fig.4.11 Layout Of Proteus

 In The Above Figure, You Can See The Proteus Window And This Window Has Many
Sections That Are Explained In The Below Figure.

Fig.4.12.Editing Window
Editing Window
 In The Above Figure, You Can See That The Dotted Portion Is Called An Editing Window.
This Is A Drawing Portion Of Proteus Where You Simulate Your Engineering Circuits And
Projects.
Overview Window
 In The Overview Window, You See The Complete View Of Your Complete Design.
Object Selector
 This Section Has 2 Buttons P And E. P Is Used To Select Different Components And Shown
In This Box. The E Button Is For Edit Something For Example You Want To Vary Any Value
Of Components Than You Can Use This Edit Button.
Zoom Option
 By Using This Option You Can Easily Zoom In And Zoom Out Your Layout And Can
Observe Complete Simulation Very Clearly.
Tool Option
 By Using This Option You Can Select Different Devices Like Voltmeter, Ammeter,
Oscilloscope, Etc.
Run Buttons
 At The Left Bottom There Are 4 Buttons Run, Stop, Pause And Stop. These Buttons Are Like
The Remort Control And On And Off Your Circuit.
How To Make Circuit In Proteus
 Lets Friends Now Discuss How You Can Make Any Electric Circuit In Proteus.
 We Will Perform Some Steps To Make A Circuit.
Step 1:
  First Of All Click On Proteus Icone In Your Computer And Click On A New File Option As
Shown In The Below Figure.

Fig.4.13.Process Step-1
Step 2:
 After That, You Will See The Drawing Sheet As Shown In The Below Figure. Save It
According To Your Project.
 Fig.4.14.Process Step-2

Step 3:
 After A Move To The Component Option As Shown In The Below Figure And Select The
Elements For Your Projects.

Fig.4.14.Process Step-3
Step 4:
 After Clicking On Components Mode You Will See Two Buttons P And L. If You Move To P
Button You Will See Pic From Libraries.
 It Is Used To Select Different Components For Circuit Construction.

Fig.4.16.Process Step-4

Step 5:
 When You Will Click On The P Button You Will See Box Shown In The Below Figure. Type
Your Component For A Circuit.
 As I Type Button And You Can See A Button In Right Figure That Different Buttons Are
Shown You Can Select According To Your Use.

Fig.4.17.Process Step-5

Step 6:
 When You Will Select Components For Your Project You Will See Them In A Box Shown In
The Below Figure.
 I Have Also Selected Some Components For Designing Of A Simple Circuit.

Fig.4.18.Process Step-6


 After The Selection Of Components Make The Circuit Layout Of Your Project And Connect
All These Components With The Wires.
 For Connection Of One Component To Other Clicks Left Of First One Terminal Of
Component And Drag It To Other Components.
 If You Want To Remove Any Component Or Remove Its Connection Just Double Click On
Respective Of A Component Of Wire.

 If You Want To Change The Values Of Any Component Such As Resistance, Capacitor, Then
Click Right On That Component And Select The Desired Value And Click OK Button.
 As In The Below Figure, I Vary The Value Of Battery Voltages.
 Fig.4.20.vary of battery voltage

Step 7:
 When You Connect All Components In The Circuit Like Run Button In Left Bottom See The
Practical Working Of Your Circuit.
 Fig.4.21.Process Step-7

Step 8:
 When You Will Observe The Simulation Of Your Circuit Than Click On Stop Button On The
Left Bottom To Stop The Working Of The Circuit.
