<voltageprobe />

Overview

<voltageprobe /> records voltage values during SPICE simulation. It attaches to an existing node in your schematic and appears in the simulation graph output. Use probes to capture input/output signals or differential measurements across components.

Properties

PropertyDescriptionExample
nameOptional label for the probe trace in graphs."VP_OUT"
connectsToPort selector that identifies the measurement node.".R1 > .pin1"
referenceToOptional port selector for differential measurements.".R1 > .pin2"

Add probes for every signal you want plotted in the simulation graph. When you provide referenceTo, the probe measures the voltage difference between the connectsTo node and the reference node.
