ADVANTAGES OF VIRTUAL MODELING FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF MEASURING DEVICES

Abstract

The relevance of using virtual modeling of devices for engineering design is considered. An analysis of the publication on the application of computerized design technologies in the processes of device development was made. The possibilities and ways of using computer modeling in the process of developing devices in the Proteus Design and SolidWorks software environments are indicated. In the Proteus Design software environment, you can simulate the operation of electrical circuits containing programmable devices: microcontrollers and microprocessors, as well as design a printed circuit board. A large number of virtual tools are used to simulate the circuits, which simulate the operation of measuring devices, which facilitates the development of electrical circuits. The ARES PCB design module has an autorouter that allows you to automate the design process. As a result of the design of the printed circuit board, a pattern of tracks is obtained, which is used for the manufacture of the printed circuit board by various methods. The article demonstrates all the stages of designing an electronic device. On the basis of the comparison of the simulation results and the operation of the manufactured device, conclusions are made about the effectiveness of the application of simulation in the engineering design of electronic measuring devices.
