The Simulation Settings dialog box appears. 3. Click the Analysis tab if it is not already the active tab in the dialog box. 4. Enter the necessary parameter values and select the appropriate check boxes to complete the analysis specifications. See Output variables on page 422 for a description of the output variables that can be entered in the Simulation Settings dialog box displayed for an analysis type. 5. Set up any other analyses you want to perform for the circuit by selecting any of the remaining analysis types and options, then complete their setup dialog boxes. Specific information for setting up each type of analysis is discussed in the following chapters. Order for standard analyses For normal simulations that are run from a simulation profile, or in batch mode, only the particular analysis type that is specified will be run. During simulation of a circuit file, the analysis types are performed in the order shown in Table 8-2. Each type of analysis is conducted only once per run. Several of the analyses (small-signal transfer, DC sensitivity, and frequency response) depend upon the bias point calculation. Because so many analyses use the bias point, PSpice calculates this automatically. PSpice's bias point calculation computes initial states of digital components as well as the analog components. . Table 8-2 Order for standard analysis 1. DC sweep 2. Bias point 3. Frequency response 4. Noise
