Before simulating, it is critical to understand how the hardware constraints translate to your virtual workspace. The
Adjust the oscilloscope's timebase to view the lower-frequency modulating envelope clearly, and modify the voltage scales until both waveforms fit on the screen. Simulating a True AM Wave Proteus Mc1496 Lib

Why? The MC1496 relies on balanced transistor pairs and internal current sources. Creating a perfect SPICE model for it is non-trivial. Many Proteus users instead substitute the NE612 (Gilbert cell mixer) or build discrete transistor circuits. However, these workarounds lack the exact behavior of the MC1496’s biasing flexibility.
