format. In the old format for analog projects, the circuit file is
located in the project directory.
Tip
The circuit file displays different groups such as text,
numbers, comments, expressions, operator, and keyword in
easy to read colors. You can also specify your own color
schemes for the file by editing the SpiceSyntax.ini file
in the /tools/pspice directory.
Refer to the online PSpice Reference Guide for the syntax of the
statements in the circuit file.
.map file (Design Entry HDL)
The .map file is used to store the name of the last profile used for a
particular design. The name that Design Entry HDL generates for this
file is DESIGN_NAME.MAP. The .MAP file is located in the directory:
\worklib\\psp_sim_1\
.cmrk file (Design Entry HDL)
The .cmrk file contains information about the waveforms being
plotted for various profiles. The name that Design Entry HDL
generates for this file is DESIGN_NAME.CMRK. The .CMRK file is
located in the directory:
\worklib\\psp_sim_1\
A sample .cmrk file is given below:
(Analog
(DCSweep
("@clipper_lib.clipper(sch_1):page1_out" "Voltage" "On" ))
(ACSweep
("@clipper_lib.clipper(sch_1):page1_mid" "Voltage" "On" )
("@clipper_lib.clipper(sch_1):page1_out" "Voltage" "On" ))
(Parametric
("@clipper_lib.clipper(sch_1):page1_mid" "Voltage" "On" )
("@clipper_lib.clipper(sch_1):page1_out" "Voltage" "On" )))
The waveforms being plotted for the profiles-DCSweep, ACSweep,
and Parametric are given in the sample.
