Standard SPICE model for the LT6658-1.2

Thread Summary

The user inquired about a standard SPICE model for the LT6658-1.2, as the LTSpice model uses unique syntax incompatible with other simulators like Micro-Cap. The final answer stated that Analog Devices only supports LTspice modeling for this product and recommended using LTspice for circuit simulation.

Hi,

I know Analog provides LTSpice model for the LT6658-1.2. Unfortunately, it leverages many unique features of LTSpice syntax and cannot be used in other SPICE simulators like, for example, Micro-Cap.

Hence, I am looking for a standard SPICE model of the LT6658-1.2.

  • We only support LTspice modeling for this product. May I recommend that you try LTspice for your circuit?

  • LTSpice is a very good simulator, which I know since its release and use it. However, it is not my first choice. Mico-Cap outperforms LTSpice in almost every functional field. Nothing surprising taking into account its initial release is 17 years older, it was a paid software, developed by a team and not by a single person like LTSpice.

    Nota bene - maybe Analog could buy Micro-Cap's sources and revive its development?

    When I come across LTSpice model, which uses some non-standard extensions to SPICE syntax, I usually adapt it. Unfortunately, this particular model uses many such unique extensions, which are tricky to replace with standard ones. As a last resort, I simulate some circuits with a model like this, in LTSpice.
