Changing the model reference to
an existing model definition
Parts are linked to models by the model name assigned to
the parts’ Implementation property. You can change this
assignment by replacing the Implementation property
value with the name of a different model that already
exists in the library.
You can do this for:
• A part instance in your design.
• A part in the part library.
To change model references for part instances on your design
1 Find the name of the model that you want to use.
2 In the schematic page editor, select one or more parts
on your schematic page.
3 From the Edit menu, choose Properties.
The Parts spreadsheet appears.
4 Click the cell under the column Implementation Type.
5 From the Implementation list, select PSpice Model.
6 In the Implementation column, type the name of the
existing model that you want to use if it is not already
listed.
7 Click Apply to update the changes, then close the
spreadsheet.
To change the model reference for a part in the part library
1 Find the name of the model that you want to use.
2 In the schematic page editor, select the part you want
to change.
3 From the Edit menu, choose Part to start the part
editor with that part loaded for editing.
