The Stimulus Editor is a utility that allows you to quickly set up
and verify the input waveforms for a transient analysis. You can
create and edit voltage sources, current sources, and digital
stimuli for your circuit. Menu prompts guide you to provide the
necessary parameters, such as the rise time, fall time, and period
of an analog repeating pulse, or the complex timing relations
with repeating segments of a digital stimulus. Graphical
feedback allows you quickly verify the waveform.
