Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TINA-TI
Hello
I am trying to import a SPICE model for a bi-polar transistor which I could not find in the built-in library.
It is BF869 and its model parameters can be found here http://web.rfoe.net:8000/ZILIAOXIAZAI/PHILIPS/models/spicespar/data/BF869.html.
Since it is just described by a .model directive, I wrapped it up by .subckt as suggested in herehttps://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/webench_design_center/f/234/t/240300 and saved as a .cir file.
It looks like this:
.SUBCKT BF869TRAN C B E
Q1 C B E BF869

.ENDS
However opening it in the netlist editor of TINA-TI and compiling it ended up with an error of "Invalid .ENDS command."
Then I also tried to compile a simple macro like this:
.SUBCKT LPF 1 2 3
R1 1 2 1k
C1 2 3 1u
.ENDS LPF
To my surprise, this also failed with the same "Invalid .ENDS command" error, which totally baffled me...
I'm using Version 9.3.100.244 SF-TI. Any help will be appreciated.
