Some analog parts, e.g., MESFETs, SCRs, IGBTs, valves/tubes, and varistors, are symbols only and you must provide the model.

Re: course of HOWTO build models like (sanken) STR-A6100
Hi I'm creating a UCC25600 behavorial model, just as a challenge, and have almost completed it. I used switches for the? push pull drivers but I'd like to use mosfets. I've tested part of it?using the TI EVM schematic. Output driver waveform is square with dead time. But the?circuit has trouble converging.?Driver output might be too square... :-) stay tuned... |

Re: course of HOWTO build models like (sanken) STR-A6100
Hi, Tamura Kentai:
The example is NOT suitable to used in the real world, it's just a demo to see if the STR-A6100 could behave well. It's absolutely not suggested to use it in real world. Especially, the transformer was just roughly put parameters, it's meaningless and absolutely NOT proper-tunned. And the model of STR-A6100 is just simple sub-circuit for behavior reference. I really hope to see the day, those companies could release those models of SPICE to their customers to spread their application of those products. For example, if I never use the STR-A6100 IC, I would never know there is a company called (sanken) exists in the world. Thank you for your opinions. Best regards.? |

ericsson:
¤è¤í¤·¤¯¡¢¤ªÔ¸¤¤¤·¤Þ¤¹ Good day. It's excited here to see someone who is interested in the (sanken) product STR-A6100 series. The Japan's companies seems not good at promotion of their products though they have good qualities. I personally think they should release more SPICE tool & support in simulation. About the STR-A6100, may I ask a question, ?could the example really be used in the real world ? Is that an exact design instance ? Thank you ¤È¤â¡¢¤¢¤ê¤¬¤È¤¦¡¢¤´¤¶¤¤¤Þ¤¹ Ìï´å½¡Ì« Tamura Kentai |

Re: Henry's current transformer problem
Henry wrote: ? ?"I now believe the core of the CT is "ferrite"." ?FYI -- ferrites encompass a whole class of materials, with a widely varying range of magnetic characteristics.?

Re: Henry's current transformer problem
analogspiceman
Thank you very much. But how did you get Ae and Ie? The CT (allowing for say 0.5 mm thickness of plastic over the core), has internal diameter 17mm and external diameter of about 28.5mm. The Ie value of 66mm means you have used a value of only 9.17mm diameter (length = Pi * diam**2 / 4)! Did you mean to use approximately 18mm but thought this was a radius rather than a diameter? Should the path length be the minimum or mean length of a circular core, or some other value? Similarly the Core width is about 18mm, so the Ae value I would have thought would be about 18 * (28.5 - 17) / 2 mm**2 = 103.5 mm**2. How do these values relate to the actual measured secondary Inductance of 71 H, which is what the values actually need to match? Also FYI, I have found that typical "air gap" values for the CT when closed are 5 to 10 microns. I now believe the core of the CT is "ferrite". I found a document about ferrite materials which has typical values of: ? Bs @ 15 Oe = 0.5 Tesla, Br = 0.1 Tesla and Hc = 0.2 Oersteds. Those vaues are rather different to the ones you suggested. What I am really interested in at this stage, is simulating when the CT will be non-linear, rather than attempting to accurately model it, so that I can try to keep in the linear region.

Re: Problem of plotting (TI) log112 curve (Vo vs. I1/I2) (log112 model in file folder)
? ?"I think the equation in the datasheet "(TI) log112" could possibly be wrong, there is NOT "negative" relation between Vlogout & Vo3." That's because their circuit shows the non-inverting configuration.? Vo3 = K*Vlogout where K >= +1. The upper circuit in your simulation has the buffered output (your "out1", T.I.'s Vo3) being an inverted version of Vlogout.? Then K = -1. I think T.I.'s datasheet is correct. Andy |

Re: Problem of plotting (TI) log112 curve (Vo vs. I1/I2) (log112 model in file folder)
mmm.... I think the equation in the datasheet "(TI) log112" could possibly be wrong, there is NOT "negative" relation between Vlogout & Vo3. But the simulation shows they are "negative", possibly in the "k" factor. "VLOGOUT = (0.5V)LOG (I1/I2)" "VO3 = K (0.5V)LOG (I1/I2), K = 1 + R2/R1" Maybe someone should inform (TI) to fix this. If it's really wrong or there is a better explanation. Best regards. |

ericsson.sunshine?wrote: ? ?"Is it possible to plot the curve similiar to the datasheet ?" Yes. Sorry, after a few false starts ... I uploaded the file "20160801_log amp (TI) log112_DC.zip" to the Temp folder. Run the simulation in that file.? Then after the simulation finishes, click in the plot window to select it, then go to Plot Settings -> Open Plot Settings File, and open the .PLT file again.? This should re-scale the axes so that the plot looks similar to the curve in the datasheet.? The difference is that the log amp runs out of positive range when the input current is too large. ? ?"And says the log amp is utilized to measure the physical quantities which has exponential characteristic (varies large.) ? ? I don't know how to show this characteristic in the waveplot of LTspice." The plot shows it.? The log amp is able to handle input signals over a 5 to 8 decade range of values, or more, which is significant. Stay away from negative values of input current.? Also avoid very small input values (less than about 100pA).? Either of those can cause the output of the log amp to deviate significantly from a log() response. Also, the current Iref through the external resistor seems to no longer be 100uA when the input current is much out of range, and this can also mess up the plot. ?(This might be a problem in the SPICE model?? Or maybe not.) ? ?"The equation's simple to understand, but it's hard to plot the curve of "Vout vs. I1/I2". I don't why" It works for a .DC sweep.? It doesn't work if the input current is not within the range where the log amp follows a log() curve. I think the reasons it didn't work well in a .TRAN simulation, are (1) the input current went outside the range where the log amp fits the equation, (2) the log amp's response time gets to be ridiculously slow (even a 10 second ramp might be too fast), and (3) there might be some oscillation (instability) going on.

Re: Problem of plotting (TI) log112 curve (Vo vs. I1/I2) (log112 model in file folder)
Hi, Andy:
Ok, now I see what's the difference, the Vout definition of the datasheet referred to Vlogout NOT Vo3. Vlogout vs. I1/I2 curve is same with the datasheet curve. But Why it can't be shown in the .TRANS simulation with a ramp voltage source ? I am still confused. Thank you |

Re: Problem of plotting (TI) log112 curve (Vo vs. I1/I2) (log112 model in file folder)
Hi, Andy:
Actually, I don't need to consider frequency response this time. I had plot the DC sweep curve, but the slop is negative (Vout decrease while I1/I2 increase). In fact, I used op amp almost in the linear amplifier of the signal and very low frequency. This is the first time I heard about log amp. I had updated the DC sweep file. Best regards. |

Re: Problem of plotting (TI) log112 curve (Vo vs. I1/I2) (log112 model in file folder)
Hi, Andy:
I had fixed the value (time, amplitude) of DC sweep source (.TRAN) to lower speed, smaller scale. And I found in a very small range, it has exp behavior, but output a DC bias about 4.2V. Is it possible to plot the curve similiar to the datasheet ? in the datasheet it says these equations: "VLOGOUT = (0.5V)LOG (I1/I2)" "VO3 = K (0.5V)LOG (I1/I2), K = 1 + R2/R1" And says the log amp is utilized to measure the physical quantities which has exponential characteristic (varies large.) I don't know how to show this characteristic in the waveplot of LTspice. I don't know what the "uni-polar" means, if you meant that it shouldn't have the negative value, I had fixed it ,it came from this ,at the beginning I used the negative value because I couldn't show the curve, so I simply thought maybe I could enlarge the scale of the waveplot to see what's different. The equation's simple to understand, but it's hard to plot the curve of "Vout vs. I1/I2". I don't why, and not sure whether it's caused by the model mismatch or other reasons. Thank you for the reply Best regards. |

Re: Problem of plotting (TI) log112 curve (Vo vs. I1/I2) (log112 model in file folder)
I re-ran it as a DC sweep, keeping I1 sufficiently positive. I get pretty good agreement with the datasheet's plot, noting the polarity inversion of your circuit, up to about 4 or 5 mA.? At that point, the core log circuit runs out of steam and clips.? That is higher than the specified input dynamic range (3.5mA max), so I think it is good -- even though the ratio I1/Iref is not as high as it is shown on the datasheet plot.? Obviously, they used a smaller value for Iref in that part of the datasheet plot. This is the first time I simulated (or even used) a log amp so I'm not an expert. Andy |
