NI Multisim (formerly MultiSIM) is an electronic schematic capture and simulation program which is part of a suite of circuit design programs,[1] along with NI Ultiboard. Multisim is one of the few circuit design programs to employ the original Berkeley SPICE based software simulation.[2] Multisim was originally created by a company named Electronics Workbench Group, which is now a division of National Instruments. Multisim includes microcontroller simulation (formerly known as MultiMCU),[3] as well as integrated import and export features to the printed circuit board layout software in the suite, NI Ultiboard.[4]

Multisim is widely used in academia and industry for circuits education, electronic schematic design and SPICE simulation.[5]

History

Multisim was originally called Electronics Workbench[6] and created by a company called Interactive Image Technologies.[7] At the time it was mainly used as an educational tool to teach electronics technician and electronics engineering programs in colleges and universities. National Instruments has maintained this educational legacy, with a specific version of Multisim with features developed for teaching electronics.

In 2005, Interactive Image Technologies was acquired by National Instruments[8] Electronics Workbench Group and Multisim was renamed to NI Multisim.[9]
