Analyses you can run with PSpice ■ See Chapter 2, "Simulation examples," for introductory examples showing how to run each type of analysis. ■ See Part three: Setting up and running analyses, for a more detailed discussion of each type of analysis and how to set it up. Basic analyses DC sweep & other DC calculations These DC analyses evaluate circuit performance in response to a direct current source. Table 1-1 summarizes what PSpice A/D calculates for each DC analysis type. Table 1-1 DC analysis types For this DC analysis... PSpice computes this... DC sweep Steady-state voltages, currents, and digital states when sweeping a source, a model parameter, or temperature over a range of values. Bias point detail Bias point data in addition to what is automatically computed in any simulation. DC sensitivity Sensitivity of a net or part voltage as a function of bias point. Small-signal DC transfer Small-signal DC gain, input resistance, and output resistance as a function of bias point.
