Re: ISL70444SEH declaration issue?
It helps if you upload a schematic that actually runs. You have a ".lib ISL70444SEH.lib" directive in the schematic, but the model file you uploaded is "ISL70444SEH.cir" and there are no analysis

Re: ISL70444SEH declaration issue?
This happens sometimes where there are signals with fast edges (aka zero rise or fall times), discontinuities or indeterminate derivatives. An indeterminate derivative happens at a corner. See if you

ISL70444SEH declaration issue?
Hello all- I'm trying to use the ISL70444SEH model and a basic circuit to confirm that the model works correctly before moving on to anything more complicated. I'm having issues with the simulation.

Re: can the Sam Ben-Yaakov self-adjusting switched-capacitors 4 cells balancer, economically manage 104 cells wired in series?
Depends on what you mean by economical.? Looking at some of Sam Ben-Yaakov's earlier videos and papers of his grad students in Switched Capacitor Controllers, it seems that 2^n-1 switches would be

Re: Can't edit parameters
Hello David, What version of LTspice are you using? This sounds like a problem that was fixed LTspice 17.1+ Could you please download the latest version and let us know if that solves the problem?

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
Not so much. Actually leakage inductance does not vary too much, but since the effective inductance of the winding decreases, the leakage factor increases. Leakage exists even when there is a single

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
Yes, this is a practical solution in many applications. In fact, my first thought was to look if there is a hidden third resonant winding. But I found out that the inverter transformer is indeed a

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
So, you mean that the impedance Z of the leakage inductance, is somehow proportional to F^2 (since Z=wL is proportional to F already). For instance, to allow some flux leakage to exist, the

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
Just like the nominal inductance largely varies between 50Hz and 16kHz, so does the leakage. The magnetic permeability decreases significantly at HF, so te fraction that goes through the air becomes

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
You may insist, but the? OP gives contrary evidence: "pure sinewave *inverters* which use conventional two-winding iron core transformers. Their transformer is *driven by a MOSFET bridge* "... "

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
It seems all here agreed that the other element in LPF is Rpar(hi) which represent the various core losses at the PWM high frequency. Now I have to find out a rather simple practical test to measure,

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
Rpar = R(af+bf^2) near enough, for suitable values or R, a and b. You need data on the core material to determine them. af is eddy-current loss and bf^2 is hysteresis loss.

I understand that, but the resonant winding is not visible to users. Ferroresonant xformers appear to be two-winding devices for all practical purposes. Donald.

Re: Linear Transformer Model Which Can Also Simulate its LPF Function
Now the question is how we can translate this to an equivalent circuit. None of the actual various equivalent circuits of a transformer seems being able to simulate its function as a stand-alone LPF!

Don't forget that the iron core will have losses at the switching frequency, along with the inductance of the windings which will have a significant impedance to the high frequency switching. These
