our schematic
After
simulating, you can display bias point information on your
schematic so you can quickly zero in on problem areas in your
design. This means you can selectively display voltages on wire
segments and currents on device pins.

mbol wizard
The symbol wizard has been
expanded to create symbols for entire model libraries. This is a
fast way to create symbols for vendor models you have just
received, or to supersede existing symbols with a new graphic
standard.

When extracting a simulation
model using the Parts utility, you can now have Parts
automatically create a symbol for the model. After saving your
work, the part is ready for use: just place and connect the symbol
in your schematic and you’re ready to simulate. The Parts utility
handles all of the library configuration steps for you.
Device noise trace displa
y
in Probe
When you run a
noise analysis, PSpice A/D now writes device noise
contributions to the Probe data file. This means you can view
device noise results as traces in Probe for each frequency in the
corresponding AC analysis. (In earlier releases, you could find
individual device contributions reported in the PSpice output
file; that information is still available and reflects the same data
you can now view in Probe.)
