Hey Cherry,

I got the same error when I tried to run the DRV8701E Transient Simulation Model (Rev. A). I suspect this is something relating to PSPICE automatically updating these files to the latest version.

Give me a few days to look into this and to reach out to the appropriate groups about it.

Regards,

Jacob

Hey Cherry,

Please see this thread:

https://e2e.ti.com/support/motor-drivers-group/motor-drivers/f/motor-drivers-forum/953032/drv8701-problem-pspice-for-ti-with-drv8701

I have attached Pablo's file: 7635.DRV8701_PSPICE_TRANS.zip

And here's another troubleshooting Pspice post for this driver. Let me know if that solution works for you. I'll try to get our website files updated.

Also, I was able to run the provided TINA simulation. You can download TINA-TI here: https://www.ti.com/tool/TINA-TI and then download and run the "DRV8701 TINA-TI Transient Reference Design"

Jacob
