I am not sure it makes a rat's difference, but I added the antiparrallel
diode effects to the DRSSTC shutdown in ScanTesla...

Prolly not the most efficient code ;o))
if ((T1 > DwellTime) && ((Vin > 0) && (X0[4] > 0))) X0[4] =
0.0; //Antiparallel diodes in DRSSTC
if ((T1 > DwellTime) && ((Vin < 0) && (X0[4] < 0))) X0[4] =
0.0; //Antiparallel diodes in DRSSTC
But it does the deed...
Cheers,

I guess the model should zero out X0[4] (primary current sending energy
back to coil) when the current is going in the wrong direction (sending
energy to coil at less than Vrail volts) after the shutdown to act like a
true diode... That has a low effect, but it would be more correct...
