THVD8000: simulation model error

Part Number: THVD8000

Hi,
customer get always an error message if they want to use the THVD8000 isolated.

Do you have a running Spice model with additional external components and parameters?

Regards, Holger

  • Hi Holger,

    Can you share the test circuit that they are simulating?  Generally singular matrices occur due to how the circuit was setup and there could be a discrepancy between the models architecture and customer test simulation.

    There isn't a test circuit that we have along with this model since it hasn't been officially released as not all the features have been modeled correctly yet - the model that exists is a simplified version - but if you could also include the file that the customer is using for our model that would be great as well so I can verify the model itself.  We did test the original model with very simplified circuits as described in the THVD8000 datasheet - essentially just RC loads. The model itself has been being used for almost 6 months and we haven't had major issues reported so far - so I am leaning towards a setup issue.

    Also if you could provide the analysis parameters that they are using - I will not I can't actually test with LTspice due it being owned by a competitor; so I will be using an equivalent spice program. 

    Please let me know!

    Best,
