Hi,
Our team is investigating the TVS diode candidate for high-speed >10GHz ASIC application, and we came across this tvs diode. Is there a SPICE simulation model of this one? like HSPICE file. Thanks

Hi Lixian,
I can make a spice model for you and post it here. Since you mentioned this is a high speed application, are you trying to simulate clamping behavior or signal integrity simulations?
If you're wanting to do signal integrity simulations the S-parameter model is a better option.

Hi Sebastian,
Thanks for your reply. Sure, posting it in this thread works for me. I am trying to simulate clamping behavior, not signal integrity simulations.
Thanks for your help.
Best,

Thanks Sebastian. Is this model for the DPL type package of this TVS diode? I saw the CJ0=0.13pF in the file and it seems matches the capacitance of the TVS diode of DPL type at 1MHz. Can the DPY package type also use this spice model?
Hi Lixian,
If you want to simulate clamping performance this model is fine, the line capacitance change from 0.13pF to 0.18pF will not affect clamping performance much. The line capacitance can be changed to match the DPY typical spec if desired.

Sebastian
