convert orcad pspice model to multisim

I want to make sure that the models for pspice and multisim are the same, how would I convert the part from orcad's pspice library in to multsim?  The specific parameters for the orcad part are:
.model Q2N5087 PNP(Is=6.734f Xti=3 Eg=1.11 Vaf=45.7 Bf=254.1 Ne=1.741
+  Ise=6.734f Ikf=.1962 Xtb=1.5 Br=2.683 Nc=2 Isc=0 Ikr=0 Rc=1.67
+  Cjc=6.2p Mjc=.301 Vjc=.75 Fc=.5 Cje=7.5p Mje=.2861 Vje=.75
+  Tr=10.1n Tf=467.8p Itf=.17 Vtf=5 Xtf=8 Rb=10)
*  National pid=62  case=TO92

*$
 
Thank you,

I just compared your model information to the one I have in Multisim 2001 and the parameters appear to be exactly the same. The format is also correct except for the last three lines and you might have to lose the Q in front of the part number. You could possibly just copy this model direct to your Multisim component using the edit component or create component menus. I do not see a reason why it wouldn't work on a direct copy.

I hope this helps, Have a Nice Day

One other thing worth mentioning is that (if I am correct) is that some spice programs use either a .LIB or a .MOD file to store thieir model information in. These files usually can be opened with a text editor program and the models can be extracted from them. I have done this on numerous occasions with .LIB files I have retrieved from the internet.

I thought this information may be useful to you. Have a Nice Day

the last three lines are comments because of preceeding * character

Just throw it into the component wizard(tools-> component wizard) as is
