Complete the following steps to load or import an existing VHDL, Verilog, code model, or SPICE model for your component:
- Click Load model from file in the Select a Model dialog box.
A standard file browser appears, allowing you to choose the file type, name and location of the files to be loaded.
Before loading a netlist, make sure you know what folder it is in. Most Bspice, Xspice and Cadence® PSpice® netlists end in the extensions .cir or .net.
- Select the file to load and click OK. The model data appears in the Model tab fields of the Component Properties dialog box.
Cadence® PSpice® is not an industry standard, but is proprietary to the Orcad SPICE simulation tool. Since some component vendors make models for their components available in Cadence® PSpice® format, Multisim has been designed to support Cadence® PSpice® models as extensively as possible. However, you will not be able to share models or designs with other SPICE users or tools.
