RE: Microsim oddity

Original poster: "Denicolai, Marco" <Marco.Denicolai@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Hi Finn,

I tried removing parts until I got it simulated. Actually I replaced
four SCRs with eight resistors. Looking at the "output" file (.out) it
seems like the "nodes" that impose the limitation aren't the schematics
nodes but the Pspice resulting nodes. Namely, in the .out listing each
SCR generates 18 Pspice nodes (!).
No other solution than a Viking version... Contact me offlist for that
:)

Cheers

P.S:A Triac seems to generate 28 nodes...
