1.1.1 How to Read this Book

This book is divided into four parts: an introduction (Part 1), a tutorial (Part 2), a reference manual (Part 3), and an appendix (Part 4).

The introduction part gives an overview of Analog Insydes' functionality, highlights the new features of version 2, and shows the application of Analog Insydes on an practical example. We recommend to read this part, especially Section 1.2.1 and Section 1.2.3, before working with Analog Insydes.

The tutorial part explains dedicated topics of Analog Insydes in detail. Although entitled Tutorial, it is not meant to be read completely before working with Analog Insydes. Rather, each chapter can be read separately as soon as you need a closer look at special topics.

The reference part explains each Analog Insydes command, shows its argument list, describes the available options, and shows the application on small examples. If you need information on a certain command, the reference manual is the preferred source.

The appendix part explains all stimuli sources defined in Analog Insydes, shows all available netlist elements, and finally describes the content of the predefined symbolic device model library.
