Tool/software:
I’m using PSPICE for TI because the design circuit has mostly TI components.
The crowbar FETs are IRF7862. I have a PSPICE model for the IRF part and was able generate a new part for the IRF FET but not able to find it in the Part Search even though the IRF7862PBF.OLB file is in C:\Cadence\PSpiceTI\tools\capture\library\pspice. I was able to place the part in the schematic but the library doesn’t show up in the part search library tab or the Categories tab. When I run the simulation I get a message
STATUS: PSpice Model Import Wizard for "Capture" (23.1.0.d001) STATUS: INFO: OLB driven flow INFO: Input File: C:\CDS_SPB_HOME\CDSSETUP\PROJECTS\POWER_RESET\POWER_RESET00.olb INFO: Symbol Name: irf7862pbf_0 ERROR: Symbol "irf7862pbf_0" not found in symbol library "C:\CDS_SPB_HOME\CDSSETUP\PROJECTS\POWER_RESET\POWER_RESET00.olb".
