Writing additional results to the
PSpice output file
Capture provides special parts that let you save additional
simulation results to the PSpice output file as either
line-printer plots or tables.
Generating plots of voltage and current values
You can generate voltage and current line-printer plots for
any DC sweep, AC sweep, or transient analysis.
To generate plots of voltage or current to the output file
1 Place and connect any of the following parts (from the
PSpice library SPECIAL.OLB).
2 Double-click the part instance to display the Parts
spreadsheet.
3 Click the property name for the analysis type that you
want plotted: DC, AC, or TRAN.
4 In the columns for the analysis type that you want
plotted (DC, AC or TRAN), type any non-blank value
such as
Y, YES or 1.
