PSpice User Guide Creating and editing models October 2019 197 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. Tools to create and edit models There are two tools that you can use to create and edit model definitions. ■ The Model Editor Use the Model Editor when you want to: ❑ derive models from data sheet curves provided by manufacturers. ❑ create models based on PSpice-provided templates. ❑ modify the behavior of a Model Editor-supported model. ❑ edit the PSpice command syntax (text) for .MODEL and .SUBCKT definitions. Note: For template-based models, the model text is read-only and cannot be edited using the Model Editor. Note: The Model Editor is not available with PSpice. ■ Capture Use the Create Subcircuit Format Netlist command in Capture when you have a hierarchical level in your design that you want to set up as an equivalent part with behavior described as a subcircuit netlist (.SUBCKT syntax). Note: The Create Subcircuit Format Netlist command does not help you create a hierarchical design. You need to create this yourself before using the Create Subcircuit Format Netlist command. For information on hierarchical designs and how to create them, refer to the OrCAD Capture User Guide. Note: If you created a subcircuit definition using the Create Subcircuit Format Netlist command and want to alter it, use the Model Editor to edit the definition, or modify the original hierarchical schematic and run Create Subcircuit Format Netlist again to replace the definition.
