Figure 1-3 Directory structure of RF_AMP analog project with
files configured for the Tran profile
An include file named _profile.inc is created
in the directory for the simulation profile. This file contains information
on the model libraries, stimulus files and include files configured for
that profile. For example, in Figure 1-3, the Tran profile directory
contains a Tran_profile.inc include file that includes
information on the decoder.lib model library, decoder.stl
stimulus file and the Tran.inc include files configured for the Tran
profile.
You must not delete the _profile.inc file in the
directory for a simulation profile.
Note: When you create a new simulation profile by importing the
settings from another simulation profile that exists in the same project
or in another project, the files configured at the profile level for the
source simulation profile are copied to the directory for the new
simulation profile. The files configured at the design level for the
source simulation profile are not copied over to the
-PSpiceFiles directory of the project in which
you are creating the new simulation profile.
What happens when I convert an analog project that
uses a design from another project or from another
location?
If you convert an analog project (created using Capture 9.2.3 or older
versions) that uses a design from another project or from another
location, to the new project format, the design file and all the contents
of the design are copied to the current project and maintained in the
new directory structure for analog projects.
What should I do if the schematic for a converted
analog project uses FILESTIMn parts from the
SOURCE library?
If you have specified only the name of the stimulus file as the value
of the FILENAME property on a FILESTIMn part, you must specify
