Re: [TCML] LTSpice+Encrypted lib/models



Hey thanks Steve. I was able to get it to work using the very same procedure but only after using a different set of models for the MOSFETS. It is actually based on your early SSTC designs and that has been invaluable!
I am still trying to track down a decent (fast/simple) IGBT model so if you have any suggestions that would be very helpful.

It doesn't have to be a direct part for part model just something that will be suitable for helping me learn (spice first then a simple driver on breadboard).

I am using an old Tektronix 465 scope I just finished repairing so my tech is a bit out of date, but it works well enough :)

Thanks again,

Matt

Matt,

I think there are just a few things required to get a library to work (at
least, this is my experience)

1) put a copy of the library file (should be a .lib) in the \lib folder,
which is in the LTC installation folder on your machine (for me it looks
like C:\Program Files(x86)\LTC\LTspiceIV\lib)
2) use the .inc lib_name.lib in your schematic
3) at this point my components list now includes a new part (or group of
parts) that i can drop onto my schematic.

If that doesn't work, send me a link the the fairchild library and i'll try
it myself and report back.

Steve
