TPS54160: SIMPLIS Model of TPS54160

Hello Vihan,

Unfortunately, we are instructed to not share SIMPLIS models which may contain information which is confidential.

On the product folder, we do have an unencrypted transient model which may enable to accomplish the same thing in TI SPICE

Hi Beck, 

Thank you for the response. We are trying to use the unencrypted SPICE model of tps54160 in SIMETRIX environment since SIMPLIS does not work with it. But it is taking way too much time in simulation and still not guaranteeing convergence. Could you possibly support in regards to the optimum tolerance values that guarantees convergence while being fast in comparison? 

Thanks,

Vihan 

Hello Vihan,

My only recommendation based on my experience is limit the amount of traces you are plotting, the simulation duration, and corresponding simulation step/resolution.

I have not messed around with convergence parameters. Some models have PWL computation which does speed things up...unfortunately this device does not. 

Hi Beck,

Thanks for the response. Although the issue may not be resolved, I am thankful the responses and suggestions. I will check the simulation step/resolution of simetrix.

Thanks

Vihan

You are welcome. You may be able to dig up a generic PCM model on the web. I can see if I can find something on my end.
