Tina Simulation of DRV104 will not run

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: DRV104

Found a Tina macro for the DRV104 on TI site and have created schematic with the required resistors, caps and power sources. It shows warnings for unconnected pins but will not show table in DC simulation. Any ideas? I am new to using Tina. I want to plot the output drive showing the on versus PWM drive of the coil.

Al,

It's easiest to get started using the TINA-TI reference design for the DRV104 - it's a TINA schematic all set up and ready to run. Make sure that runs, then you can modify the schematic for your particular test scenario.

Al,

I have reproduced the circuit you posted and I do not see any errors when I try to generate a table of DC results. What is the error message that you are getting?
Also have you tried downloading the TINA reference design from the website? http://www.ti.com/litv/tsc/sbvc005a. This might give you a quick start on what you are trying to simulate. Let me know if you have further questions.

Regards,

Marcos.

Thanks Rick! The plot is what I was looking for. I will dig around to learn where you found this. Also perhaps I can find what I did wrong.

Thanks Marcos. The links you and Rick posted were what I needed. The plot is what I was looking for.
