ad8338 spice model

I'm trying to import AD8338.cir file in Tina 9, using Macro wizard.

With Others Analog spice model it works. The reported error log is "invalid function name:LIMIT Line:72" in AD8338 model

Thank you in advance

Ok, it works with another simulator, it seems to be a Tina problem.

Thank you

ruggiLucio,

Might be a bit late..but

I also have been through this. There are different Spice syntax types e.g. Berkeley SPICE3 which some simulators can't handle. There's nothing wrong with Tina-Ti. It's great.

The support from manufacturers of the IC's is the problem not being able to help with these models. One model can work with one simulator but not another!! Frustrating.

2 lines have to be re-written in the AD8338 model for Tina-Ti.

Was

• BSLEW  VSLEW 0 I=(-1)*LIMIT((V(VGAINOUT)-V(VSLEW)),0.002,-0.002)

Now

• GSLEW  VSLEW 0 VALUE ={(-1)*LIMIT((V(VGAINOUT)-V(VSLEW)),0.002,-0.002)}

Was

• BCLAMP VLIMIT 0 V=LIMIT(V(VPRE), 1.55, -1.55)

Now

• ECLAMP VLIMIT  0 VALUE {LIMIT(V(VPRE), 1.55, -1.55)}

This is the sort of answer we want from manufacturers!!!
