I've a simple question : does TINA-TI support the Jiles-Atherton model ????
I wrote recently the following PSPICE model for aa simple transformer but the model doesn't work
.More the transformer works as an ideal transformer without taking in account the suggested magnetic model of the core !!!
he N67 is an old ferrite material from EPCOS and was replaced,I think, with new N87 type .With 40 turns, the primary current must have a (+/-) a Lp=3.56mH and the magnetic component of primary current should exibit a sawtooth with a Im,pk=0.64A nevertheless nothing of this happens……….

Is only a test so ifr TINA-TI doesn't support this model …….NO PROBLEM !
Nevetheless i'm curious
Thanking in advance for Your courtesy,
