Re: LTspiceXVII released
Hello Philippe > See the help with keyword "state" ?[ .MACHINE -- Arbitrary State Machine ] in LTspice XVII The Wine chm viewer doesn't allow search, I just installed xchm and, sure enough, there it is. Thanks for letting me know. > The above netlist produces only 1mV on node 2.? However, if I add a 0V voltage source in series with R1, it produces 1V on node 2.? Very strange. Hello analogspiceman, I just tried this new feature and it seems to go by the book to me (both examples from the help). Could it matter that I run the x64 version in Wine?

Re: LTspiceXVII released
Hello Helmut,
Just to be sure I just reinstalled the new LTspice from their website.? I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit I-7. V1 1 0 pulse(0 1 0 1u 1u .5m 1m) R1 2 0 1k .machine .output (2) V(1) < .5 .endmachine .tran 3m The above netlist produces only 1mV on node 2.? However, if I add a 0V voltage source in series with R1, it produces 1V on node 2.? Very strange. ---In LTspice@..., <helmutsennewald@...> wrote : Hello analogspiceman, I tried the 2nd example as you mentioned. When I change R1 to 1k5,?then I get 1.5V as expected. Best regards, Helmut ? |

Re: Google groups
AG wrote: ? ?"Google groups seems to allow file postings and file sharing..." I have read many negative things about Google Groups.? I thought they eliminated the file storage/sharing capability, a couple of years ago? I subscribe to a number of Google Groups too.? And I remember being sent some administrative messages from Google about the fact that they were about to delete those groups' file storage areas, and that this was our last chance to download them before they were removed from the Group. In my view, Google Groups are not a good alternative to Yahoo!Groups.? Believe it or not, Yahoo!Groups, in spite of all the bugs and all the unwelcome changes and the wrenches they keep throwing into the mechanism, seems to be more stable than Google Groups.? Google happily changes and eliminates functions in their software products without regard for the effects on their user base.? I have seen groups that migrated from Yahoo to Google, then years later scooted back over to Yahoo after what Google did to them. Andy ? |

Re: vc pot with internal resistance
Hello Philippe > "(it's unclear to me what that "p" means in A's formula, maybe 2 misspelled? " > Isn't it pi ? Wine displays it as the lower case letter "p", and so does xchm. I'd rather not speculate, though "2" would seem more appropiate in the context of A=ln()/2, B=ln()/2 => exp{ [ ln()*atan()+ln() ] / 2 }.

Re: XVII

April, 2010 and it only supports Win 95 to Win XP." ?I think this was mentioned before.? Although a version of Wine might emulate only up to Windows XP, it is not Windows XP itself, and it might have many more "hooks" and low-level capabilities than an authentic MS-Windows XP has.? A direct comparison would not be fair. Andy |

Re: Is direct contact okay?
One can make a reasonable guess about the CT core dimensions from the data sheet, but it is not clear what the material is.? High quality CTs use tape-wound nickel-iron cores to keep magnetizing current to a minimum, but your CT has a split core, which probably introduces enough of an air gap that they might use ordinary transformer steel, since it is less expensive and magnetizing current would be dominated by the gap.? However, the difference still matters because you care about saturation and nickel-iron has only about half the saturation level of regular transformer steel (the core losses are lower, too).
It is easy to guess your application, you are most likely using MOSFETs to time multiplex the output of the CT between normal current sensing and supplying power for the current sense circuitry.? No doubt you are wondering how the build up of magnetizing current will affect the accuracy of the sensed signal and how much power you get with a relatively low duty cycle in power mode. ---In LTspice@..., <4vl7aujnwrex7ropketfjd7le5afsie4zyue7rcb@...> wrote : Bordodynov and analogspiceman If you could please direct Email me at HKafeman@..., then I can give you some more details of the CT, etc. Thanks and Regards Henry Kafeman |

Hello Henry Kafeman.

The primary winding of the current transformer comprises a single turn. The current transformer is loaded by a small impedance in magnitude (relative). The consequence of this effect strong demagnetization. Therefore, the effect of magnetic saturation of the core needs huge currents.

Re: Is direct contact okay?
analogspiceman
Thank you for your reply. Yes we want to avoid saturation, but we are using the Current Transformer in two modes, for Energy Harvesting and Measurement. To this end we are changing the load it is connected to between the Modes and also switching in varying Burden resistance values. Hence we would like to try to model the behaviour across a wide range of Primary currents to see the effect and to make sure that we understand what is happening and whether saturation becomes an issue. Also we need to understand the effect of a wide range of operating temperatures.... I have asked the manufacturers if they can supply the relevant details for the model, but so far, they do not seem to be able to give me anything more than the basic details and a test result excitation curve! Thanks and Regards Henry Kafeman |

Re: LTspiceXVII released
Hello Helmut,
Try the second example from Help (just paste it into an empty schematic as SPICE text).? It is true that the outputs will sum together like current sources, but the value of the load resistors has no effect on the output amplitude.? Please try it and report back. ---In LTspice@..., <helmutsennewald@...> wrote : Hello analogspiceman, > The state machine appears to have a bug.?? > The nominal output amplitude is 1mV rather than 1V, so the output equations must be multiplied by 1k.?? > For example: ....
