Simulation

A <pin id> (from line 4) is uniquely distinguished by specifying

the full part name (as described above) followed by a colon, and

the pin name. For example, the pins on a capacitor with

reference designator C31 placed on a top-level page and pin

names 1 and 2 would be identified as C31:1 and C31:2,

respectively.

Current

Specify current in the following format:

i[modifiers](<out device>[:modifiers])

where <out device> is a fully qualified device name.

Modifiers

The basic syntax for output variables can be modified to indicate

terminals of semiconductors and/or AC specifications. The

modifiers come before <out id> or <out device>. Or, when

specifying terminals (such as source or drain), the modifier is

the pin name contained in <out id>, or is appended to

<out device> separated by a colon.

Modifiers can be specified as follows:

• For voltage:

v[AC suffix](<out id>[, out id])

v[terminal]*(<out device>)

• For current:

i[AC suffix](<out device>[:terminal])

i[terminal][AC suffix](<out device>])

where

terminal specifies one or two terminals for devices with

more than two terminals, such as D (drain), G

(gate), S (source)

AC suffix specifies the quantity to be reported for an AC

analysis, such as M (magnitude), P (phase), G

(group delay)

out id specifies either the <net id> or <pin id>

(<fully qualified device name>:<pin name>)
