Could someone please send a link (or break it down themselves) of a simplified version of the dsm v autism spectrum disorder criteria?

They stopped using roman numerals, so this one is DSM 5.

The CDC has a page listing the criteria which are pretty clear and simple, if you take time to just read through:
