what is the *.SLB library file?

Hi there.

I am having trouble when trying to undestand what the *.slb files do for you, if you want to get part models from them.

I have a list of these files from Pspice 10.5 library, and I am trying to get them work in Pspice 9.2 Lite.

There is also other files with *.plb format and .prp format. don't know what these are? what is the replacement for the

*.olb files?

 

Thank you.

    By default, the "coarse", snap to, grid will be on. You can turn this off to get the "fine" grid on the toolbar, run along to get the tooltips, that should still work in the LITE version, the toolbar icon will be red when the "fine" grid is enabled, turn this OFF after editing the part graphics and before placing any pins or editing the schematic, otherwise items will be off grid and "difficult" to connect. You may also want to look at downloading the current demo CD, it has the same capabilities but the tools have been improved in the intervening time.
