Re: step recovery diode in LTspice
Thanks. I had some questions. How do I create the SRD subcircuit? * .subckt SMMD805 1 2 Lser 1 11 1n Cpar 11 2 2p D1 11 2 D_805 * What does Lser, Cpar, D1 mean? Also what does the numbers beside these

local temperature parametrization in subcircuits / different methods to pass parameters
I have found out following detail regarding setting local and global temperatures, read LTspice code below. Main point is, that you cannot pass the temperature variable in a function to the subcircuit

It's just the diode itself that's the SRD. I have uploaded one of my old schematics </g/LTspice/files/Temp/SRC_PulseGen.zip> that uses the SRD in shunt mode, which is often more

Re: step recovery diode in LTspice
Do you now how to design the SDD in ADS based on the equation and then use that SRD model in other circuits? I could try with the ADS then. Thanks.
