Glossary
Here you find explanations of specific terms that InfineonSpice uses as well as general terms that have specific meanings.
component
A
component
is a combination of a symbol and a model. It represents a physical component that is used in a schematic to perform a simulation.
library
A
library
is a data structure that contains one or more models, each of which describes the simulation logic for a component.
model
A
model
is the simulation logic of a component. It consists of SPICE code and is contained in a library.
project
A
project
in
InfineonSpice
is a collection of all elements, such as schematics, components, and simulation settings. that are required to perform a simulation of a particular device. The elements can either be contained in the project or be external and included by reference.
schematic
A
schematic
is a data structure in
InfineonSpice
that represents an electric circuit. It can contain components and their connections.
symbol
A
symbol
is the graphical representation of a component in a schematic.
view
A
view
is a region within the main program window that displays a thematic subset of the program data, such as the workspace, available components, or the simulation environment.
