File
The symbol file abm.slb contains the ABM components. This
file can logically be thought of as consisting of two sections.
The first section contains symbols that can be quickly connected
to form “control system” types of circuits. These components
have names like SUM, GAIN, LAPLACE, and HIPASS.
The second section contains symbols that are useful for more
traditional “controlled source” forms of schematic parts. These
PSpice A/D-equivalent symbols have names like EVALUE and
GFREQ and are based on extensions to traditional PSpice A/D
“E” and “G” device types.
ABM components are implemented using PSpice A/D
primitives; there is no corresponding
abm.lib file. A small
number of components generate multi-line netlist entries, but
the majority are implemented as single PSpice A/D “E” or “G”
device declarations. See ABM Part Templates
on page 6-6 for a
discussion of TEMPLATE attributes and their role in generating
netlist declarations. See Implementation of PSpice A/D-
Equivalent Parts on page 6-29 for more on PSpice A/D “E” and
“G” syntax.
