SPICE versions

The theory of operation of each circuit is discussed, followed by the circuit schematic, the simulation results, and a comparison to laboratory data. Advantages and disadvantages of each circuit are added, along with any tips or hints useful in modeling the circuit accurately. We have attempted to perform each simulation using several versions of SPICE for comparison. Also included are the run times for each circuit simulation. 

Amerine et ah, 1980). Vermouths are typically classified as sweet (Italian) or dry (French). In the Italian version, the alcohol content can vary from 15% to 17%, with 12-15% sugar. French versions have 18% alcohol with 4% reducing sugar. Dry vermouth contains less herb and spice extract than the sweeter vermouth—about 3.74-5.62 mL/L for dry, and 5.62-7.49 mL/L for sweet (Amerine et al., 1980 Panesar et ah, 2010). 

The separation of capsaicinoid mixtures is important to assess the Scoville value of food spiced with chili pepper [42]. This Richter scale of pungency was devised by the Arizona pharmacist Scoville in 1902 to measure the pungency of peppers (see also Section 4.8). In its original version, the Scoville scale was sensory, being... 

Aromatic versions of cyclohexane monoterpenes (benzenoid menthanes or cymenes) are also found in nature and are constituents of some plants frequently used as spices. The hydrocarbon p-cymene (E19) has been found to occur in the oils of cinnamon (Cinnamonum zeylanicum), cypress, eucalyptus, thyme, and turpentine, whereas m-cymene (E20) is a constituent of the oil of blackcurrant Rites nigrum, Saxifragaceae). The corresponding phenols, thymol (p-cymen-3-ol) (E21) and carvacrol... 

Lentil club sandwiches, noodle salads and tempeh Reubens grace the menu at Slice Of Life Cafe (742 South St., b 716-271-8010). Although locals scoff that the place serves rabbit food, its creative yet inexpensive fare draws a good crowd. The India House Cafe (1009 S. Clinton Ave., b 716-271-0242) is a smaller, allvegetarian version of the India House restaurant next door. Sample vegetable curries and the like in a casual, uniquely Indian atmosphere. The store attached to the cafe sells Indian spices wholesale to the public. 

The calculations in this chapter, and many more electronic calculations, can be done by computer with the program "SPICE" (Simulation Program with IC Emphasis), from Microsim Corp., Irvine, CA (www.microsim.com). Also, a low cost demonstration version is available from Intusoft, in San...
