Virtual R,L,C
(Edit Menu)Three virtual elements may be added to the layout: resistance, capacitance and inductance.
RESISTANCE. Adding a resistance in the layout is interesting to handle the interconnect resistance effect in analog simulation. In practice, resistance are added in the layout of some analog circuits such as analog-to-digital converters (See ADC.MSK). To insert a resistance, do as follows:
When adding a resistance, you give:
CAPACITANCE. Adding a virtual capacitance is interesting to investigate the behavior of a circuit when loaded by a capacitance charge, without performing its implementation.
INDUCTANCE. An inductance may be added in the layout to simulate the effect of integrated inductance, in resonant circuits for example.
