What is PSpice?

PSpice is a simulation program that models the behavior of a circuit containing analog devices.
Used with OrCAD Capture for design entry, you can think of PSpice as a software-based
breadboard of your circuit that you can use to test and refine your design before even touching a
piece of hardware.

 Spice is the short form of:

 Simulated

 Program with

 Integrated

 Circuit

 Emphasis

Startup:-
 PART-B PSPICE LAB EXPERIMENTS

FILE NEW PROJECT. Choose Analog or Mixed A/D, give a name to your project and
select the location where you want to save it.

 This is how a typical “Schematic” Window will look like

To start drawing this circuit, go to the file menu, PLACE PART, you will see Place Part
window will appear on right hand.
 PART-B PSPICE LAB EXPERIMENTS

For the circuit we have constructed we would like to find the voltage at various nodes. Choose
from the menu bar “Pspice” and select “New Simulation Profile”. Enter a name and keep the
settings “inherit from” as none. Now you can edit the simulation settings.

Now we run the simulation, and a blank graph will be presented. To add a trace, choose “Add
Trace” from the “Trace” menu or use the “Insert” key on the keyboard.
