PSIM Schematic Import - Compatibility and Debug
SIMBA 23.01 introduced the capability to import and open PSIM XML netlist files.
Important
This functionality is currently in Beta version. PSIM model could be not entirely imported. More information regarding the current compatibility are available here.
