What is PSPICE?SPICE (Simulation Program for Integrated Circuits Emphasis)
A powerful general purpose analog circuit simulator that is used to verify circuit designs and to predict the circuit behaviorOriginally developed at the Electronics Research Laboratory of the University of California, Berkeley (1975)
PspiceA PC version of SPICE (MicroSim Corp.)
HspiceA version that runs on workstations and larger computers

Analysis TypesNon-linear DC analysis: calculates the DC transfer curve. Non-linear transient analysis: calculates the voltage and current as a function of time when a large signal is applied. Linear AC Analysis: calculates the output as a function of frequency. A bode plot is generated. Noise analysis Sensitivity analysis Distortion analysis Fourier analysis: calculates and plots the frequency spectrum. Monte Carlo Analysis

Trouble ShootingTrouble ShootingAlways remember to ground your circuit with a GND_EARTH.If an error window pops up when you try to simulate, you need to identify which pin is “floating” i.e. not connected properly to the circuit and link it up with a wire. Common Problem:
When every connections seem OK but there is error message consistently the best way is to erase all the wires, while keeping the elements, then re-wire. This is the surefire way to solve the problem.
