ABSTRACT
PSpice allows generating dependent (or independent) voltage and current sources. An independent source can be time variant. A nonlinear source can also be simulated by a polynomial. In this chapter, the authors explain the techniques for generating sources. The PSpice statements for various sources require: Source modeling, Independent sources, Dependent sources and Behavioral device modeling. The AC sources are generally used for determining the frequency responses (output vs. frequency of a circuit). The independent sources can be time invariant and time variant. There are five types of dependent sources: Polynomial source, Voltage-controlled voltage source, Current-controlled current source, Voltage-controlled current source and Current-controlled voltage source.
