Table 4-1 summarizes the device types supported in the Parts
utility.
*. This is the standard PSpice A/D device letter notation. Refer to the online
MicroSim PSpice A/D Reference Manual
.
**. The Parts utility only supports .SUBCKT models that were generated by
the Parts utility. This means that you cannot load a .SUBCKT model created
manually or by another tool into the Parts utility for editing. When you try to
load a .SUBCKT model that the Parts utility did not create, Parts displays the
“model not supported” message.

the .MODEL
statement are based on the
models built into PSpice A/D.

used by the models built into
PSpice A/D.
