Hello all, I have to simulate a digital circuit, in the circuit there is a timer triggled by a leading edge pluse, it is to say that when the leading edge comes, then the timer start working. I don't know how to realize it bu PSpice. can someone help me, thank you very much.
Circuit? Do you have PSpice A/D?

Spricht so den Dorfidioten.
PSpice A/D does quite nicely as a digital simulation tool and includes a nice selection of 'HC CMOS parts (as well as most other commercially available stuff) to select from.
And PSpice can also do MIXED analog and digital circuits.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.
Looks like you should avoid Babelfish ;-)
You should also avoid commenting on a simulator which you have obviously never seen, let alone exercised. Clearly you've missed my schematic posts on A.B.S.E which included digital components.
GNU nuts are just about as uninformed as leftist weenies ;-)

Only for analog.
Which PSpice is in digital mode.
PSpice digital simulation is event-driven, unless analog components are added. See the following on the S.E.D/Schematics page of my website.

PSpice is exactly the wrong tool to use for simulation of digital circuits. [1] Try using something like Tkgate instead:

[1] Yes I know the quibblers and nit-pickers on this froup will say that you can do some level of digital stuff in PSpice. The point here is that Hr. Zyzmax is evidently a clueless newbie, using SPICE to do digital stuff is a non-optimal way to work, and so Hr. Zyzmax should be helped to find a more appropriate tool.Hi Jim and Stuart, thanks very much for your advise and help. I of course have a PSpice A/D. and the digital circuit is only a small part of my design, also there are a lot of analog parts in my design. so I think PSpice is really the good tool to simulate it. to avoid using A-to-D and D-to-A subcircuits. I decide to use analog behavioral modeling(ABM) to replace the digital part. also the timer can be realized by using a VPLUSE, but the big problem for me is how to realize a timer triggled by a leading edge. Maybe I need to use the Customizing Device Equations using C language. but I think it is too hard for me to use it. is there some good ideas for me? thank you very much.
Are you trying to realize a digital timer (with a clock), or an analog timer, like a 555 (for example) or other one-shot?
There are behavioral (digital) one-shots in the library. You just specify a time and away you go.

Weil Sie auf meinen Post reagieret haben, so muss ich annehme, dass Sie under den Dorfidioten stehen. :-) [1]

Wonderful. Does Hr. Zyzmax need to do mixed signal analysis? Or is he analyzing a clocked counter? Does PSpice handle synchronous logic analysis, or is it only useful for combinational logic analysis? And if you can do synchronous logic analysis, is there a graphical primitive (i.e. symbol) for a clock oscillator?
And does Hr. Zyzmax need a >$1000 "upgrade" to get any of the required features for logic work?

I don't read a.b.s.e. Please post a pointer to a schematic you've produced which best suggests how a clocked counter/timer can be simulated using PSpice. I will then be happy to look at it using groups.google.com.
Ultimately, I still think that using SPICE of any type is not the best way to simulate simple digital circuits since SPICE is a stepped-time simulator. Better, I think, to use an event-driven simulator. However, I am willing to be proven wrong about the specific capabilities of PSpice.
: GNU nuts are just about as uninformed as leftist weenies ;-)
Naw, Free Software types are too busy writing code and doing real work to waste time looking at the alt.binaries.* hierarchy.
Stuart
I really want a analog timer, but I don't think 555 is a good way, because there are several timers in my design, so if I use 555, I think the simulation time maybe long
Look in 1_Shot.lib/1_Shot.slb
These models are mostly behavioral and simulate very quickly.

Ok, I will try it, thanks very much for your help
Jim Thompson ???
Pretty much *all* of the major Spices (e.g. SuperSpice, EWB, CM, B2 Spice, TINA etc) use the XSpice version of Spice3, with the XSpice bit containing the full event driven digtital whatsit.
Kevin Aylward snipped-for-privacy@anasoft.co.uk
I want a signal to triggle the timer to work, but the inbuilt analogue timers don't this function.
Kevin Aylward ???
Again, all the major spice vendors use XSpice. XSpice has inbuilt analogue timers, vcos etc. that run very fast. Why dont you read the documentation?

Sure they do, RTFM!

There is an XSpice voltage controlled oneshot. i.e. a timer. You can set it to generate a pulse on, say, a rising edge, and then use a second one to trigger on the the falling edge of the first oneshot, hence you have a delayed pulse.
