Exp. No. INTRODUCTION TO PSPICE CIRCUIT SIMULATOR
1. INTRODUCTION
SPICE is a powerful general-purpose analog and mixed-mode circuit simulator that is used to
verify circuit designs and to predict the circuit behavior. This is of particular importance for
integrated circuits. It was for this reason that SPICE was originally developed at the
Electronics Research Laboratory of the University of California, Berkeley (1975), as its name
implies:
Simulation Program for Integrated Circuits Emphasis.
PSpice is a PC version of SPICE (which is currently available from OrCAD Corp. of Cadence
Design Systems, Inc.). A student version (with limited capabilities) comes with various
textbooks. The OrCAD student edition is called PSpice AD Lite. Information about Pspice AD
is available from the OrCAD website: http://www.orcad.com/pspicead.aspx
The PSpice Light version has the following limitations: circuits have a maximum of 64 nodes,
10 transistors and 2 operational amplifiers.
SPICE can do several types of circuit analyses. Here are the most important ones:
• Non-linear DC analysis: calculates the DC transfer curve.
• Non-linear transient and Fourier analysis: calculates the voltage and current as a
function of time when a large signal is applied; Fourier analysis gives the frequency
spectrum.
• Linear AC Analysis: calculates the output as a function of frequency. A bode plot is
generated.
• Noise analysis
• Parametric analysis
• Monte Carlo Analysis

In addition, PSpice has analog and digital libraries of standard components (such as NAND,
NOR, flip-flops, MUXes, FPGA, PLDs and many more digital components,). This makes it a
useful tool for a wide range of analog and digital applications.
All analyses can be done at different temperatures. The default temperature is 300K.
The circuit can contain the following components:
• Independent and dependent voltage and current sources
• Resistors

2
 • Capacitors
• Inductors
• Mutual inductors
• Transmission lines
• Operational amplifiers
• Switches
• Diodes
• Bipolar transistors
• MOS transistors
• JFET
• MESFET
• Digital gates
• and other components (see users manual).

2.PSpice with OrCAD Capture (release 9.2 Lite edition)

Before one can simulate a circuit one needs to specify the circuit configuration. This can be
done in a variety of ways. One way is to enter the circuit description as a text file in terms of
the elements, connections, the models of the elements and the type of analysis. This file is
called the SPICE input file or source file and has been described somewhere else (see
http://www.seas.upenn.edu/%7Ejan/spice/spice.overview.html).

An alternative way is to use a schematic entry program such as OrCAD CAPTURE. OrCAD
Capture is bundled with PSpice Lite AD on the same CD that is supplied with the textbook.
Capture is a user-friendly program that allows you to capture the schematic of the circuits and
to specify the type of simulation. Capture is non only intended to generate the input for PSpice
but also for PCD layout design programs.
The following figure summarizes the different steps involved in simulating a circuit with
Capture and PSpice. We'll describe each of these briefly through a couple of examples.

Step 1: Circuit Creation with Capture Step 2: Specify type of simulation

Create a new Analog, mixed AD project Create a simulation profile
Place circuit parts Select type of analysis: o Bias, DC
Connect the parts sweep, Transient, AC sweep
Specify values and names Run PSpice

Step 3: View the results

Add traces to the probe window
Use cursors to analyze waveforms
Check the output file, if needed
Save or print the results

 Figure 1: Steps involved in simulating a circuit with PSpice.

The values of elements can be specified using scaling factors (upper or lower case):

T or Tera (= 1E12); U or Micro (= E-6);

G or Giga (= E9); N or Nano (= E-9);
MEG or Mega (= E6); P or Pico (= E-12)
K or Kilo (= E3); F of Femto (= E-15)
M or Milli (= E-3);

Both upper and lower case letters are allowed in PSpice. As an example, one can specify a
capacitor of 225 picofarad in the following ways:

225P, 225p, 225pF; 225pFarad; 225E-12; 0.225N

Notice that Mega is written as MEG, e.g. a 15 megaOhm resistor can be specified as 15MEG,
15MEGohm, 15meg, or 15E6. Be careful not to use M for Mega! When you write 15Mohm or
15M, Spice will read this as 15 milliOhm!
We'll illustrate the different types of simulations for the following circuit:

Figure 2: Circuit to be simulated (screen shot from OrCAD Capture).

2.1 Step 1: Creating the circuit in Capture

2.1.1 Create new project:
1. Start OrCAD Lite as shown below:

4
Note that the only program you need to start is “Capture Lite Edition.” The other programs will
run automatically as they’re needed.
2. Click the “Create Document” button on the toolbar.

3. The following dialog will appear. Fill in the information as shown.

4. The following dialog will appear:

5
Choose “Create a blank project” and click OK.

5. The schematic editor will open. Enter the following schematic into the program:

A new page will open in the Project Design Manager as shown below.

Figure 3: Design manager with schematic window and toolbars (OrCAD screen capture)
2.1.2. Place the components and connect the parts
1. Click on the Schematic window in Capture.
2. To Place a part go to PLACE/PART menu or click on the Place Part Icon. This will open a
dialog box
shown below.

6
 Figure 4: Place Part window

3. Select the library that contains the required components. Type the beginning of the name in the
Part box.
The part list will scroll to the components whose name contains the same letters. If the library is
not available, you need to add the library, by clicking on the Add Library button. This will bring
up the Add Library window. Select the desired library. For Spice you should select the libraries
from the Capture/Library/PSpice folder.

Analog: contains the passive components (R,L,C), mutual inductane, transmission line,
and voltage and current dependent sources (voltage dependent voltage source E, current-
dependent current source F, voltage-dependent current source G and current-dependent
voltage source H).
Source: give the different type of independent voltage and current sources, such as Vdc,
Idc, Vac, Iac, Vsin, Vexp, pulse, piecewise linear, etc. Browse the library to see what is
available.
Eval: provides diodes (D…), bipolar transistors (Q…), MOS transistors, JFETs (J…),
real opamp such as the u741, switches (SW_tClose, SW_tOpen), various digital gates
and components.
Abm: contains a selection of interesting mathematical operators that can be applied to
signals, such as multiplication (MULT), summation (SUM), Square Root (SWRT),
Laplace (LAPLACE), arctan (ARCTAN), and many more.
Special: contains a variety of other components, such as PARAM, NODESET, etc.

4. Place the resistors, capacitor (from the Analog library), and the DC voltage and current source.
• You can place the part by the left mouse click.
• You can rotate the components by clicking on the R key.
• To place another instance of the same part, click the left mouse button again.
• Hit the ESC key when done with a particular element.
• You can add initial conditions to the capacitor. Double-click on the part; this will open the
Property window that looks like a spreadsheet. Under the column, labeled IC, enter the
value of the
initial condition, e.g. 2V. For our example we assume that IC was 0V (this is the default
value).

5. After placing all part, you need to place the Ground terminal by clicking on the GND icon (on
the right side toolbar – see Fig. 3). When the Place Ground window opens, select GND/CAPSYM
and give
it the name 0 (i.e. zero). Do not forget to change the name to 0, otherwise PSpice will give an
error or
"Floating Node". The reason is that SPICE needs a ground terminal as the reference node that has
the
node number or name 0 (zero).

AUST/EE
E
Figure 5: Place the ground terminal box; the ground terminal should have the name 0

6. Now connect the elements using the Place Wire command from the menu (PLACE/WIRE) or by
clicking
on the Place Wire icon.

9
7. You can assign names to nets or nodes using the Place Net Alias command (PLACE/NET
ALIAS menu).
We will do this for the output node and input node. Name these Out and In, as shown in Figure 2.

2.1.3. Assign Values and Names to the parts

1. Change the values of the resistors by double-clicking on the number next to the resistor.
You can
also change the name of the resistor. Do the same for the capacitor and voltage and current
source.
2. If you haven't done so yet, you can assign names to nodes (e.g. Out and In nodes).
3. Save the project

2.1.4. Netlist
The netlist gives the list of all elements using the simple format:
R_name node1 node2 value
C_name nodex nodey value, etc.
1. You can generate the netlist by going to the PSPICE/CREATE NETLIST menu.
2. Look at the netlist by double clicking on the Output/name.net file in the Project Manager
Window
(in the left side File window).

Note on Current Directions in elements:

The positive current direction in an element such as a resistor is from node 1 to node 2. Node 1 is
either the
left pin or the top pin for an horizontal or vertical positioned element (.e.g a resistor). By rotating
the element
180 degrees one can switch the pin numbers. To verify the node numbers you can look at the
netlist:

e.g. R_R2 node1 node2 10k

e.g. R_R2 0 OUT 10k

Since we are interested in the current direction from the OUT node to the ground, we need to rotate
the
resistor R2 twice so that the node numbers are interchanged:

R_R2 OUT 0 10k

2.2 Step 2: Specifying the type of analysis and simulation

As mentioned in the introduction, Spice allows you do to a DC bias, DC Sweep, Transient with
Fourier analysis, AC analysis, Montecarlo/worst case sweep, Parameter sweep and Temperature
sweep. We will first explain how to do the Bias and DC Sweep on the circuit of Figure 2.

10
2.2.1 BIAS or DC analysis
1. With the schematic open, go to the PSPICE menu and choose NEW SIMULATION
PROFILE.
2. In the Name text box, type a descriptive name, e.g. Bias
3. From the Inherit From List: select none and click Create.
4. When the Simulation Setting window opens, for the Analyis Type, choose Bias
Point and click OK.
5. Now you are ready to run the simulation: PSPICE/RUN
6. A window will open, letting you know if the simulation was successful. If there are
errors, consult the Simulation Output file.
7. To see the result of the DC bias point simulation, you can open the Simulation
Output file or go back to the schematic and click on the V icon (Enable Bias Voltage
Display) and I icon (current display) to show the voltage and currents (see Figure 6).

The check the direction of the current, you need to look at the netlist: the current is
positive flowing from node1 to node1 (see note on Current Direction above).

2. Transfer function

Computes the gain and the input and output resistances and automatically sends the results to
the output file. To specify the transfer function, choose Setup from the Analysis menu and
open the Transfer Function dialog box. In the Output Variable box specify the output voltage,
and in the Input Source box type the input source name. The transfer function analysis can be
used conveniently to obtain the Thevenin's equivalent circuit. The use of this analysis to
obtain the Thevenin's equivalent circuit is demonstrated in the following example

Example 6

Use the transfer function analysis to obtain the Thevenin's equivalent circuit for the circuit of
Example 5.
We want to obtain the Thevenin's equivalent circuit with respect to the 3.5 Ω resistor. The 3.5
Ω resistor is replaced by an open circuit. Since in PSpice two or more elements must be
connected to each node, the 3.5 Ω resistor is replaced by an infinitely high value resistor as
shown. A VIEWPOINT is added at node 4 to display the open-circuit voltage (Thevenin's
voltage). To obtain the output or Thevenin's resistance, the transfer Function is enabled. In
the Output variable box we type V(4), and in the Input Source box, we type V1.

Thus, the Thevenin's voltage is V4 = -7.5 V, and the Thevenin's resistance is the output
resistance 2.5 W.

AIM: To Simulate the DC network with sub circuit using PSPICE.

SOFTWARE REOUIRED: PSPICE — Personal Computer Simulated Program

Theory:

Coding a Subcircuit
Each subcircuit used in a study must have a unique name. This is true of any other circuit
element. Also, there must be a list of at least two nodes that can be connected to
elements external to the subcircuit. A subcircuit can have many external node
connections, if needed. Later, we will find that parameters can be passed to a subcircuit
in order to allow unique behavior and responses from an instance of a subcircuit.

The initial line of a subcircuit section must begin with ".SUBCKT," followed by the
name and then the external node list. After that, optional features (not to be discussed
yet) can be added. The best method of understanding the use of a subcircuit is by
example. Below, we find a cluster of components that can be combined into a
subcircuit.

Sub circuit:

Department of Electrical & Electronics Engineering —BSMRSTU

 Laboratory Manual Electrical and Electronic Circuits Simulation

Note that nodes 5, 12 and 18 have external connections. Therefore, they must be
included in the node list in the subcircuit definition. Nodes 10 and 13 do not have
external connections and need not be (indeed should not be) included in this node
list. They are internal nodes and will be used to help define the subcircuit.
Now, we can code the above subcircuit as follows. Note that the code could be
embedded into the rest of the code for the main circuit or could be placed in a
separate include file.
