A wide variety of common components are available when designing an analog circuit in Mindi, using either the quick access toolbar or by browsing the complete list of components under the Place tab at the top of the window.
There are several components, such as resistors and capacitors, that can be inserted into a schematic and assigned values to be used for simulation. Additionally, there are also many specific devices that have model libraries already integrated into Mindi that can be added to the schematic by selecting From Model Library under the Place tab. After selecting this option, a window will open showing all of the model libraries sorted by device type. These model libraries include common components such as comparators, diodes, MOSFETs, voltage regulators and operational amplifiers, among many other options.
The model library for the operational amplifier found on the PIC18-Q41 and other applicable PIC and AVR microcontrollers can be found under the Microcontroller Peripherals section in this window. When designing an analog circuit in Mindi, placing a component using the model library browser will ensure that the simulation is performed using the characterized parametric data for that device. Model libraries that are not included in Mindi can be imported by clicking on the top toolbar or by dragging the directory into the MPLAB Mindi command shell.
