PSpice User Guide Creating parts for models October 2019 306 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. Attaching models to parts If you create parts and want to simulate them, you need to attach model implementations to them. If you created your parts using any of the methods discussed in this chapter, then your part will have a model implementation already attached to it. MODEL The IMPLEMENTATION property defines the name of the model that PSpice must use for simulation. When attaching this implementation, this rule applies: ■ The Implementation name should match the name of the .MODEL or .SUBCKT definition of the simulation model as it appears in the model library (*.LIB). Example: If your design includes a 2N2222 bipolar transistor with a .MODEL name of Q2N2222, then the Implementation name for that part should be Q2N2222. Note: Make sure that the model library containing the definition for the attached model is configured in the list of libraries for your project. See Configuring model libraries on page 244 for more information. For more information on model editing in general, see Chapter 4, "Creating and editing models." For specific information on changing model references, see Changing the model reference to an existing model definition on page 240. To attach a model implementation 1. In the schematic page editor, double-click a part to display the Parts spreadsheet of the Property Editor. Assume the spreadsheet is displayed in columns and follow the instructions below. 2. Click on the empty cell under the Implementation Type column. A drop-down list appears in the cell.
