PSpice User Guide Creating and editing models October 2019 255 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. For template-based models, smoke information is present by default and is visible in the Smoke Parameters frame. You can edit this information using the Model Editor. To add smoke information to a non template-based model, you need to complete the following steps. 1. From the Models List window, select the model to which the smoke information is to be added. Note: If the model that you are trying to edit, has multiple implementations, you first need to select the implementation for which changes have to be made, from the Select Implementation dialog box. This dialog box lists all the implementations associated with a model. The changes are saved to the location where original implementation is stored. 2. From the Model menu choose Add Smoke. ❑ If the model uses the.SUBCKT definition, the Add Smoke dialog box appears. a. In the Add Smoke dialog box, specify the device type. b. Click OK. The Test Node Mapping and the Smoke Parameters frames appear along with the Model Text window that displays the model definition in the text format. ❑ If the Model uses the .MODEL definition, the Test Node Mapping and the Smoke Parameters frames appear along with the Model Text window. In the Test Node Mapping frame, enter the name of the port that maps to each Node. The correct node to port mapping is essential to ensure that smoke analysis gives correct results. To know more about Test Node Mapping, see Smoke parameters on page 260. For the PSpice models with the .MODEL definition, node names should be the ones that get assigned by part created using the Model Editor. For the PSpice models with .SUBCKT definition, node names are defined by the ports in the subcircuit definition. 3. Enter the maximum operating values for the parameters in the Smoke Parameters frame. 4. Save the model.
