loading TI PSpice model (tps63002) into Tina-TI

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: TINA-TI, TPS63002

I'm using a few tps6300x devices (both variable & 002/fixed 5v) supplies on a new board, and wanted to create some models on Tina-TI (SwitcherPro works fine on the part). I see the PSpice files are recently available. I believe TINA needs both a '.lib' & '.tld' files. The PSpice package includes only the '.lib'. TINA is pretty smart & knows I'm missing the .tld file if I place the 'lib' in the 'C:\Program Files\DesignSoft\Tina 7 - TI\SPICELIB' directory & try to run. The startup error catches I'm missing the file, 'The number of LIB and TLD files in the SPICELIB folder must be the same'.

Is there any way I can use the available tps63002 PSpice files for modeling in TINA-TI, or is there a more recent example I can snag for that part series?

I'm XP-Pro sp3, core-2-duo desktop, 4gb ram, TINA-TI v7.0.80.96 SF-TI

Thanks for any tips - Steve

Steve,

The .lib file from the PSpice model and the .lib file for the TINA model are different. Normally, we convert the PSpice .lib file into a TINA macro and then test it using the reference design. I believe that the TPS63002 is currently being translated into TINA, but I will need to confirm. I'll follow up with another post when I get the information.

Great, that makes sense. I do have the eval board, but wanted to file the modeling results too.

Thanks Britt. I'll watch for an update.

Steve,

I am attaching the .TSC file for the reference design here for the TPS63002. It will be released to the web, but I wanted to make sure that you got a copy as soon as it was available. You can cut and paste the TPS63002 model from the reference design into your circuit.

Please let us know if you have any additional questions. Please note that the reference design is set up for a load transient test.

Thanks Britt,

The file loads up no problem. I'll play for a couple days and get back to you if I have any questions. I should be set.

Thanks again for digging this up quickly.
