I am trying to get used Pspice simulation for a small circuitry, and I made a very simple circuit to learn its each function.

the circuit loop only contains one VSIN(10V amplitude, 50 hz) and one 1K resistor, and of course this loop has the GND.

I used AC sweep. After simulation, the voltage cross the VSIN is zero. I cannot understand what I did wrong.

The Pspice I using is student version 9.1

I just want to show VSIN(input) wave output vs time. Thank you.

If you are just interested in looking at the sine wave generated from the VSIN input the correct analysis’s tool to use in Pspice is the transient. I like to see at least three waves so for 50Hz I would set the Final time to 60ms. When the graph window pops up go to Trace -> Add Trace and uncheck currents and alias names and click on V(R1:1) You should then get a sine wave on the graph with a peak to peak of 10V and a wave length of 20ms.

I would also suggest looking up a FAQ or Tutorial on the subject. There are tons out there.
