Appendix Overview
This appendix describes how to set up and run an optimization
for a design defined in a circuit file.
Optimizing without a Schematic
on page C-2 gives an overview
on optimizing a netlist-based design.
Setting Up the Circuit File
on page C-3 describes the steps that
you must complete using a text editor to parameterize the circuit
file for optimization.
Setting Up and Running the PSpice Optimizer
on page C-4
describes the steps that you must complete using the PSpice
Optimizer to define parameters and specifications, run the
optimization, and save the results.
Example: Parameterizing the Circuit File
on page C-6 steps
through parameterizing a simple diode biasing circuit file.
