  2. Modeling of Elements • PSpice simulation of circuits is based on the models of circuit elements. • A model that specifies a set of parameters for an element is specified in PSpice by the “.MODEL” command. • The general form of the model statement is.MODEL MNAME TYPE (P1=A1 P2=A2 …)TYPE is the type name of the elements and must have the correct model type name (shown in Table 3.2, page 43) • There can be more than one model of the same type in a circuit with different model names. EENG 2920, Class 3

  3. Resistor Models • The name of a resistor must start with R. • Models in PSpice Capture • The user can assign the model name of the breakout devices in the library “breakout.olb” • The user can edit the model parameters. • Model Parameters for Resistors (Table 3.1, page 41) • R: Resistance, no unit, default: 1. • TC1: linear temperature coefficient, unit: oC-1, default: 0. • TC2: quadratic temperature coefficient, unit: oC-2, default: 0. • TCE Exponential temperature coefficient, unit: oC-1, default: 0. • Resistance as a function of temperature: • T and T0 are the operating temperature and the room temperature, respectively, in degree Centigrade EENG 2920, Class 3

  5. A Simple Demo of PSpice Model Editor • This step-by-step demo will show how to do the following: • Add library breakout.olb • Place breakout elements, e.g., Rbreak • Invoke PSpice Model Editor • Create new resistor models • Label breakout resistor models • Run simulations • Show voltages and currents • Edit model parameters • Also demonstrate how to edit property Note: In the Capture CIS that we are using in labs, we have to write “R=.9”, instead of “R=0.90”; that is, you have to remove 0 at both ends. The Lite version does not have such bugs. EENG 2920, Class 3

  6. Example 3.2 • Create a new blank Analog or Mixed A/D project E3_2 • Draw the following circuit: • Resistors are from the library “breakout.olb”, Rbreak • Select one of the Rbreak resistor, right-click mouse, select “Edit PSpice Model” • Create resistor models Rmod1 and Rmod2, save the models: • Correctly label the breakout resistor models: EENG 2920, Class 3

  10. Transient Analysis • A transient analysis deals with the behavior of an electric circuit as a function of time. • If a circuit contains an energy storage elements, a transient can also occur in a DC circuit after a sudden change due to switches opening and closing. • PSpice allows simulating transient behaviors, by assigning initial conditions to circuit elements, generating sources, and the opening and closing of switches. • The simulation of transients in circuits with linear elements requires modeling of • Resistors, capacitors, and inductors, • Model parameters of elements, • Operating temperature, • Transient sources.
