PSpice output file
The PSpice output file is an ASCII text file that contains:
• the netlist representation of the circuit,
• the PSpice command syntax for simulation commands and
options (like the enabled analyses),
• simulation results, and
• warning and error messages for problems encountered
during read-in or simulation.
Its content is determined by:
• the types of analyses you run,
• the options you select for running PSpice A/D, and
• the simulation control symbols (like VPRINT1 and
VPLOT1) that you place and connect to nets in your
schematic.
Example: Each instance of a
VPRINT1 symbol placed in your
schematic causes PSpice A/D to
g
enerate a table of volta

values for the connectin

net,
and to write the table to the
PSpice output file.
