how can i create a symbol in tina ti ?

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TINA-TI

Hi,

I need to create a symbol and to put a circuit in it. I use tina-9. How can I provide this? I don't have .cir file or another file. I draw a circuit and need to define it with a symbol. It doesn't happen with macro wizard. What should I use?

  • Zehra,

    You cannot use TINA-TI to create a symbol for a circuit. This function is reserved for the full version of TINA. You can, however, export your circuit as a .cir file using File-->Export-->Netlist...-->For PSpice (*.CIR)...

    Once you have the .CIR file, you will have to create your .SUBCKT statement based on your circuit ports. I would name the wire in TINA-TI before exporting the circuit so they are easier to define in the .CIR file. Here is a quick example circuit that I used:

    I have named the input and output (this is a simple filter). Once the .CIR file is created, remove the forcing functions:

    Remove the .LIB statements. Add the .SUBCKT statement:

    .SUBCKT FILTER Input Output

    Remove the .END statement at the bottom of the file and add the .ENDS statement:

    You can then use the New Macro Wizard to import the file and create a symbol for it. There may be some other edits required for different circuits, however, you should be able to get the .CIR file to import. I would auto generate the shape:

    That's it.

  • This is very helpful. Thank you so much.
