actually the output should not have the distortion in -1.8kA ! and it should continue constant like a diode :) kind regards Hamed --- In LTspice@..., John Woodgate <jmw@...> wrote:

Re: A TVS does not work with load dump test??
Hi.

You included TVS diode in parallel to the voltage source? Then, measure the diode current. If the source impedance is zero, the voltage limit is not. Put your project in the TEMP folder.

A TVS(SMBJ24CA) is used for protect from voltage spike(parallel with input). I input a load dump voltage waveform into the circuit, but the voltage is not clamped by TVS, does anybody know what the problem is?? |

74F and 74ACT models
Hy guys
Does anybody know where it is possible to get some models of 74F and 74ACT units? I couldn't find anything in the group library. In a university project I should simulate and analyse the frequency spectrum and the cross talk characteristics by using these elements. In advance many thanks. Regards Misho |
.measure script
Seems there has been quite a bit written about the .meas command which makes it hard to find specific information in previous posts.
Several questions that may have been already answered in the past: 1) Is there an example .meas script posted in the "Files" section that I may have missed? 2) If there is a syntax error in the .meas file, does the whole script fail or only that particular .meas command? 3) Can I parameterize within a .meas command? E.g. can I parameterize the start and end times for an average function. .param mbegin=5us mend=20us .meas Pout avg RLOAD6*I(R2)^2 from={mbegin} to={mend} Also "from=" and "to=" does not seem to be documented in any ltspice help documentation. I had to grab it off hspice documentation. Thanks. |

Re: OT/Left Field...
Nick:
I did not mean to be meen, I just presumed there had been no search done. I did also notice NGspice, and it does sound like a good option, especially in conection with google drive. It would allow you to design, simulate, and store results on line hopefully with minimal processing requirements.

Possible to snap to lowest or highest point of plot?
Hi - I have been characterizing a couple circuits and have been manually trying to find the highest and lowest voltages and currents of a circuit I'm simulation. I'd love it if there was some sort of "snap" feature that would snap to the highest or lowest point. Or, similarly, if I could just get the highest/lowest points of waveforms to be displayed on the schematic itself.
Does anything like this exist? Thanks!! |

And that is what I said I did. I did a cc to this thread to document that there is continuing interest in this thread and feature.

I have found that Google is my friend. Anytime I start looking for something, I start at google.com So, with that in mind, I went to google.com, and found Droid Tesla[1], another great place to look is wikipedia[2], the page on spice lists several implementations with source code[3]. These links were discovered in under 2 minutes. Please find the links as a great place to start. Tim [1] [2] [3] On Mon, Jul 8, 2013 at 11:55 AM, Nick <nick@...> wrote:
