AC Sweep Anal
sis
The AC sweep analysis in PSpice A/D is a linear (or small
signal) frequency domain analysis that can be used to observe
the frequency response of any circuit at its bias point.

In this example, you will set up the clipper circuit for AC
analysis by adding an AC voltage source for a stimulus signal
(Figure 2-17) and by setting up AC sweep parameters.
