Other Parts Discussed in Thread: INA217, OP27, REF02

The page for the INA217 touts TINA but I cannot find a model for it in the software - is there a model available?

  • Just a follow up - I found a model for the SSM-2017 on the web and tried importing that. In general it runs but the gain resistor has to be 1/100th of the calculated value - for example, if you want 40dB gain the simulated part needs a 1 Ohm gain resistor.

    Here is the model in case anyone needs it:

    *
    * APPLICATIONS INFORMATION
    *
    * The SPICE macro-models on this diskette, as of the above
    * release date, are the most current for Analog Devices
    * products. As more models are completed, new
    * releases of this diskette will be issued. With Release
    * K, the ADSpice library now has 446 macromodels, which is
    * an increase of 18 models over Release J.
    *
    * The model library contains many types of models in addition
    * to op amps. The types of models are: op amps, instrumentation
    * amplifiers, references, switches, variable gain amplifiers,
    * multipliers, matched transistors, buffers, and a balanced line
    * receiver.
    *
    * All the models have an advanced architecture that allows
    * for multiple poles and zeros to model accurately the AC
    * and transient response of the device. Unique to ADI, the
    * following models contain noise sources, allowing SPICE
    * analysis of the total noise of a circuit:
    *
    * AD581 AD584
    * AD587 AD588
    * AD645 AD680
    * AD712 AD743
    * AD745 AD780
    * AD797 OP113
    * OP176 OP177

    * MODEL REVISIONS
    *
    * Some of the models have been revised since the last release
    * the diskette. If a model was revised, the release letter
    * on the first line of the file was changed, and the
    * revisions are documented in the comments at the beginning
    * of the net-list file.
    *
    * In addition, the hyphen from the names of the models
    * has been removed to avoid confusion between the file name
    * and the model name. This was done for almost all of the
    * models.
    *
    * OPEN-LOOP GAIN AND PHASE
    *
    * A common mistake in simulating an amplifier's open-loop
    * gain and phase performance is to run the model open-loop.
    * Like the actual device, without feedback, even a small
    * amount of offset can cause the circuit to saturate to
    * either supply rail. Because of the saturation, the model
    * gives a much lower open-loop gain. Thus, the model needs
    * to be run closed-loop. Typically, the easiest way to do
    * this is to run the model in an inverting op amp
    * configuration and have SPICE plot the log of the output
    * minus the log of the inverting input.
    *
    * TRANSIENT ANALYSIS
    *
    * One of the most difficult problems in using SPICE is
    * convergence. As the number of nodes increases, so do the
    * calculations needed for convergence. If the analysis
    * quits due to non-convergence, then adding the following
    * line to the circuit net-list will help in most cases:
    *
    * .OPTIONS ITL4=40
    *
    * This increases the number of iterations from the default
    * of 10 to 40. The SPICE simulator will then make 40
    * iterations to try to find the next point of the transient
    * solution before going to a smaller time step.
    *
    * NEGATIVE CAPACITANCE
    *
    * Some SPICE simulators do not allow the use of a negative
    * capacitor, which is used in some macro-models to properly
    * shape the frequency response. Those simulators will
    * issue an error message stating that the negative
    * capacitor is not permissible. When this problem is
    * encountered, change the sign of the negative capacitor to
    * positive. Then, change the signs of the two resistors in
    * the same stage to negative.
    *
    * POWER DISSIPATION
    *
    * All models accurately model the supply current of the
    * part including the output current. To calculate the
    * power dissipation of the circuit, the supply current
    * should be multiplied by the supply voltage. This may
    * give a different number compared to the total power
    * dissipation printed at the end of all SPICE ".OUT" files.
    * The discrepancy is due to higher than normal internal
    * currents, which are not added to the supply current.
    * The noise models are especially affected by this because
    * of the large currents in the internal stages needed to
    * keep the noise low. Thus, always use the actual supply
    * currents to calculate the total power dissipation and do
    * not use SPICE's printed power dissipation in the ".OUT"
    * file.
    *

    * * OP AMP MODEL TEST CIRCUIT
    * *
    * * This net-list will test the OP-42 model in a simple
    * * inverting gain of -1 circuit. Three different types
    * * of waveforms will be simulated: DC, AC and transient.
    * * This file can be used as direct input to your SPICE
    * * simulator software.
    * * To look at the output, enter "TYPE EXAMPLE.OUT"
    * * An output file generated using PSpice 6.0 is saved
    * * in the file "COMPARE.OUT" to check your output.

  • Bill,

    Thanks for your interest in the INA217.
    Unfortunately no model exists for that device and one is not scheduled at the moment.

    If you would still like a model for the INA217, please request one through your local TI sales rep or field engineer.
    The TI rep can submit the internal model request on your behalf, work with us to set a delivery date, track the model's progress, and deliver the final model.

    I hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions.

    Regards,
    John
