LM34936: LM34936 model for NGSPICE

user6373850

Part Number: LM34936

I'm trying to simulate a circuit using an LM34936 in KiCAD, which uses NGSPICE. The only model I have been able to find is an encrypted model for PSPICE. I did try using the model, but, unsurprisingly, it didn't work since it's only supposed to work in PSPICE. From what I can find online, I need to request the unencrypted model. From other forum posts, I found that I am supposed to contact support for unencrypted models. I contacted support and they said they didn't have the model I was requesting and directed me to this forum since the maintainers of the model are on this forum.

Would it be possible for me to get a copy of the unencrypted model for the LM34936 so I can simulate it in a circuit?

Thank you

Hi,

I'm also considering the LM34936 for an upcoming product. I'm also very interested in obtaining an unencrypted SPICE model so I can run it in my flavor of *SPICE.

Thanks,

Aleks

Hello Aleksander and user6373850,

Currently the LM34936 un-encrypted model is not available without an NDA.

Please request an NDA at this website.

Thanks,

Garrett

Thank you for looking in to this, but unfortunately I cannot sign an NDA since this is a personal project that I am working on without any association of a company. My job doesn't even work with hardware development. Are there any other options?

Thank you

User6373850,

Unfortunately it is not possible to release the un-encrypted model without an NDA in place.

Hi Garrett,

We (my company) have requested a SafeTI NDA through the e-mail safety_docs@list.ti.com which I found on this forum. Is this the correct way forward?

Thanks,
Aleks

Hi Aleks,

The email address that you mention should be able to help with the request. If not, they should be able to point you in the correct direction.
