file. The effect is the same as if you had run each circuit
separately and then concatenated all of the outputs.
Running simulations with multiple circuit files
You can direct PSpice to simulate multiple circuit files
using either of the following methods.
Method 1
1 From the Start menu, point to the OrCAD program
group, then choose PSpice.
2 Select Open Simulation from the File menu from the
PSpice window.
3 Do one of the following:
• Type each file name in the File Name text box
separated by a space.
• Use the combination keystrokes and mouse clicks
in the list box as follows: C+click to select file
names one at a time, and V+click to select groups
of files.
Method 2
1 From the Start menu, point to the OrCAD program
group, then choose PSpice.
2 Update the command line in the following way:
•
Include a list of circuit file names separated by
spaces.
Circuit file names can be fully qualified or can contain
the wild card characters (* and ?).
The PSpice simulation window
The PSpice Simulation Window is an MDI (Multiple
Document Interface) application. This implies that you
can open and display multiple files at the same time in this
