Hi,
I wonder where can I simulate UCC28911 in Tina-ti, I tried UCC289(X_AVG) but think they are not very similar.

Thanks for your help, but I can not import UCC28700 PSpice Model into Tina-Ti, it says 'Invalid device: $CDNENCSTART. Line #36. ' What am I suppose to do.
Guangyang,
The model is encrypted and will only run in the simulator in which it is encrypted (PSpice in this case).
You can request the unencrypted model but will need an NDA. What I can tell is that this model is pretty complex and may not work like other models by directly importing into TINA-TI without making significant tweaks. Please consider instead to use UCC28710 TINA-TI model which is already available:
Guangyang,
I believe that the symbol is simply incorrect. However, if you right click on the symbol and select Enter Macro, you will see the following:
The transformer model is present and this shows the pinout for it. If you are having trouble running the simulation, I would recommend selecting the TINA default values for the simulation parameters (Analysis-->Simulation Parameters...). Click on the hand icon at the bottom right of the window and select TINA default. The simulation should take a while to run.
Guangyang,
Does the reference design run for you after changing the maximum time step only? The reference design runs correctly for me once that change is made.
I posted a picture of the connections and details of the transformer model in the previous posting. Do you have a specific transformer that you are wanting to use? If so, you will need a model for it to import into TINA-TI or you can use one of the built in transformer models if they apply.
The attached reference design simulates properly when I run the transient simulation.
Britt,
The design doesn't run for me after I changed the parameter you mentioned above. I don't have a specific transformer want to use. I don't know how to do No.4/5/6 in the below picture, I used to just choose DC Analyse for simulation, is there some thing wrong here.
Here is the simulation result I got, totally a mess.
Guangyang
Guangyang,
This model is a transient model, which means you should be running a transient simulation. A DC simulation is simply a calculation of the nodes at time T=0 which will not give you much information that is useful from a time domain model.
Please run a transient analysis on the transient model (Analysis-->Transient...). I believe that you will find the results much more meaningful.
