Saving a TINA spice model to the library

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: INA240, TINA-TI

Is there a way to save a model into the TINA library?  For example, I have downloaded the INA240 TINA model, unzipped the folder, and inserted the macro model from that folder.  But is there a way to get it so that it is grouped in with all the other TINA models in the library instead of in its own folder?

Thanks!

    Hi Russel,

    The zip file you downloaded from Tools and Software section of the part, contains *.tld and *.lib files. You have to keep these files in SPICELIB folder of TINA installation (e.g. C:\Program Files (x86)\DesignSoft\Tina 9 - TI\SPICELIB). After keeping these files, use Tools>>Re-compile Library and then Tools>>Re-build Library options. This should allow you to insert the part in TINA-TI schematic from Texas Library.

    Hope above steps help you resolve the issue. Please let us know if you need further support.

    Thanks!!

    Best Regards,

    Mahavir Jain.

    Thank you Mahavir,

    One more question.  I went through the above steps, restarted TINA, and the part doesn't show up under Spice Macros.  I went through all the tabs and couldn't find it.  Once again, I was using the INA240 current shunt monitor.

    Regards,

    Russell
