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.
