  • Pspice 9, Student version. An nice alternative to drawing schematics by hand.
  • This is a Windows version. (I have tried to make it work under wine/Mac OS X but haven't been able to make it load the libraries correctly)
  • Make sure you select the schematics option when installing the software.
  • Select Tools/Schematics when starting the editor
  • The schematics editor is located in C:\Program Files\OrCAD_Demo\PSpice\PDesign.exe upon installation.
