Hi,
Can anybody provide me the details, how to simulate the Impedance curve for coupled inductor in TI P Spice, I Have modeled a new coupled inductor and i want to verify the Impedance curve of this inductor to match with practical data.
Regards
Rayees K.E
Hi Rayees,
I did find a mention about ideal inductors and their limitations.
https://resources.pcb.cadence.com/i/1180526-pspice-user-guide/849?
In general, I'd check cadence for these types of questions, and TI for questions regarding TI products.
If you like, I can check with Cadence on how specifically to simulate your circuit.
Let me know if you'd like me to proceed.

Hi David,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, if you can discuss with Cadence and can provide the solution that will be helpful for me.

Here's the answer from Cadence:
To get the impedance response of an inductor user should run the AC Analysis and plot the inductance using trace expression "1/((I(R1))*2*pi*Frequency)"
But the simulation behavior of inductor will totally depend on the inductor model.
User can also use GFREQ_FILE component in PSpice library to design a frequency dependent inductor as per the datasheet.
Check article in below link from COS
Modeling Frequency Dependent Inductance in PSpice (cadence.com)
Does this answer your question?

Hi,
Thank you for your input. I have tried to do as per above inputs, please find below my observations,
I need to do the impedance simulation as below, which is measured practically with Pico scope.

Hi Rayees,
Ayush from Cadence provided some additional guidance:
User can create a simple circuit with an inductor and and AC source and run the AC analysis to get the frequency domain graph and then use the bode plot to plot the impedance of the circuit or use the formula to plot the required graph in the output window.
I found some links online which shows the measurement of impedance in PSpice. It might help the user.
