Simulation profiles let you store settings that you commonly use. They can be recalled simply by choosing them from the Simulation Profiles menu.

Creating a simulation profile for the low pass filter​

  1. Define the profile in the Simulation Environment, which is initially displayed on the right side of the design environment

  2. If you switched to the

    Properties

    tab while drawing the schematic, you have to switch back to it by clicking on

    Simulation Environment

    on the bottom right of the

    InfineonSpice

    design environment.


At the top, the

Simulation Environment

consists of the following items:

  • Drop down-menu which allows to switch between different simulation profiles

  • Undo/Redo to revert changes in simulation profiles

  • Button to add new simulation profiles

  • Button to copy simulation profiles

  • Button to import a simulation profile from another schematic

  • Button to delete the currently selected simulation profile

At the center, the

Simulation Environment

has different sections which can be used to define the following:

  • Different circuit analysis types include Transient, OP, DC

  • The circuit's design parameters, for example supply voltages or transistor widths

  • The plot setup of the analysis, for example specific node voltages and device currents to be plotted

  • File paths to model libraries which contain device models used in the circuit

  • Simulator settings, for example accuracy parameters

  • Additional Netlist commands, that is, user-defined inputs in TITAN syntax

Defining simulator outputs​

The simulator outputs, that is, the signals to be plotted by the waveform viewer after the successful termination of a simulation, are defined in the

Plot Setup

section of the

Simulation Environment

. By default, only

Top-Level

voltages and currents of the circuit are stored in the results data base. Signals deeper down the circuit hierarchy are not saved.

  • Option All allows to store all voltages and currents of the circuit, which however increases the amount of data generated by TITAN

  • Option Signals only causes TITAN to save only the signals specified in the Signals pane, minimizing the disk space required for saving the outputs
