SIMPLIS Analysis Modes

SIMPLIS AC Analysis

AC is a small-signal frequency domain analysis mode applied to a switching circuit.

For more information about this analysis mode, see the SIMPLIS Reference Manual (Help ▶ Online Manuals ▶ SIMPLIS Simulator Reference Manual).

Note: An AC analysis requires that a POP analysis is also defined.
