PSpice User Guide Creating and editing models October 2019 193 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. PSpice-provided models The model libraries that you initially install with your PSpice programs are listed in NOM.LIB. This file demonstrates how you can nest references to other libraries and models. If you click the Configuration Files tab in the Simulation Settings dialog box and view the Library files list immediately after installation, you see the NOM.LIB entry in the Library files list. The icon means that this model library and any of the model libraries it references contain global model definitions. Model library data Information contained in PSpice model libraries can be classified as: ■ Simulation information ■ Device information Simulation information Simulation information is also termed as model information and is used while simulating the models. Depending on the method of creation, PSpice simulation models are of two types: ■ Device characteristic curves-based models ■ Template-based models Device characteristic curves-based models Simulation models based on the device characteristic curves are the models that are historically being used in the PSpice flow. You can extract device parameters based on the device characteristic curves in the data sheets. Template-based models These simulation models are based on PSpice-provided templates and are a new addition to the PSpice model library. Simulation models that are based on PSpice provided templates are also
