Dear edaboardusers,

I've learned from this thread https://www.edaboard.com/threads/112332/ that it is possible to use a .txt-PSpice-Model as a Model for the Diode from Analoglib.

But how do I do it? How can I choose the model?

Thank you in advance

Include into what?


What I'm doing at the moment as a workaround:

I create a .m-file with following content:

* test t_measured = 27
.MODEL es1pd D ( &
LEVEL=11 &
TNOM=27 &
IS=9E-007 &
N=2.23036 &
RS=0.0200667 &
EG=1.11 &
XTI=3 &
CJO=1.08695E-011 &
VJ=3.32186 &
M=0.1 &
FC=0.5 &
TT=0 &
BV=220 &
IBV=10 &
AF=1 &
KF=0 &
T_MEASURED=27 &
)

Then I go to Virtuoso Analog Environment:

Setup -> Model Libraries
and add the path of the created file.

That's exactly what I meant! ;-) You can include the text file directly.

If you use C@dence ADE's SPECTRE, and your model file uses SPICE syntax, don't forget to include at the top of your model file text:
Code: 
simulator lang=spice
 
Thank you very much! It works!

:grin:
