WEBENCH® Tools/TPS54360: Inverting Buck Boost - Bode Plot and TINA AC Analysis

I am not sure if this is possible,i will move this to the Webench forum

Thanks

Hi Steve,

Currently there is no option available in WEBENCH to simulate test-benches other than start-up for edited schematic.

Thanks & Regards,

Harish

Is there a way to export a Bode Plot model of the TPS54360 from WEBENCH to TINA for an unedited schematic?

WEBENCH exports a startup model to TINA, but it only works for startup. Changing the voltage source in TINA to a steady state voltage and attempting to simulate results in an error during simulation. The startup macro has visible parameters that look like they might allow for a different steady state condition, but they seem to be locked.

Thank you Harish and Arief for your previous responses.

Hi Steve,

Currently there is no way to export Bode Plot from Webench to TINA.

Also the WEBENCH Spice model only supports Buck configuration & doesn't support Inverting Buck-Boost configuration for this device.

Thank you Harish. You answered my questions.

Also, I found that the startup model supported inverting buck boost by making the changes shown in the diagram above. The only complication is that the -24V is called GND, not -24V.

The Tools &Software tab of the TPS54360 has several TINA-TI and PSpice models that could be used in TINA-TI.
