To find parts using the online OrCAD Library List
1 In Windows Explorer, double-click LIBLIST.PDF,
located in the directory where PSpice is installed.
Acrobat Reader starts and displays the OrCAD
Library List.
2 From the Tools menu, choose Find.
3 In the Find What text box, type the generic part name.
4 Enter any other search criteria, and then click Find.
The Acrobat Reader displays the first page where it
finds a match. Each page maps the generic part name
to the parts (and corresponding vendor and part
library name) in the OrCAD libraries.
5 If you want to repeat the search, from the Tools menu,
choose Find Again.
Note
If you are unsure of the device type, you can scan all of the device
type lists using the Acrobat search capability. The first time you do
this, you need to set up the across-list index. To find out more, refer
to the online Adobe Acrobat manuals.
