Mega in PSpice = ‘meg’ PSpice accepts (m = e-3) Its not a case-sensitive : ‘m’ as well as ‘M’ denote “milli” (1e-3) Unit can be omitted: e.g: Change the resistor value to 1k Change the resistor name to R_load (no spaces allowed!) R = Rotate parts I = Zoomed-in O = Zoomed-out W = Wire P = to Place Parts find components Ctrl + X = Cut Ctrl + V = Paste Esc = to end current task F11 = to RUN the simulation G = GND N = to Name your wire Insert = Add Trace (simulation o/p) Display the Results : Parameters that you want from the output, e.g: gain Av, slopes, bandwidth, etc 1. Output Results : Know your design & your intended results!! 4. Simulation : Analysis Types (time, voltage, frequency based?) 3. Its like your breadboard, without touching the real one.īasic Steps for Simulation Circuit Design : Component parts, sources, ground 2. Allows simulation of circuits without building physical prototypes.
Point and transient time domain simulations. Can perform DC level, AC frequency response, bias
The PSpice simulator itself uses “netlists” (text files that contain the circuit description) as input.ģ. PSPICE uses a schematic capture program to generate the netlist, so you simply have to draw your circuit in order to simulate it. Netlists are rather non-intuitive, and difficult to create, debug, and modify. A netlist describes the components in the circuit and how they are connected. It takes a circuit netlist and performs mathematical simulation of the circuit's behavior. 5.ĭeveloped at UC Berkeley in the ‘60’s Common SPICEs include HSPICE, PSPICE, LTSpice and B2SPICE.
