Related Issues

One can see, in this section, we have limited devices/components, but sometimes it is needed by the company/Industries that need the required device file with proper specifications according to their Product/components which need to manufacture. For example, a diode itself has a different device model file like S1B, S2M, power diode, etc.

Purpose

Users can work and design various circuits that require diodes, PNP transistors, NPN transistors, JFET, etc.

With the complexity in designs and various applications of the users, it is highly expected that almost all the devices should be available in the package so that it can help electronics circuit designers and enthusiasts to work on the project without thinking to model various devices.

Approach

The model editor window is helpful to model spice files of many devices. In fact, converting datasheets to spice model files are also possible, although it is a complex process and requires different tools. After getting the device spice model files, it is tested for IV characteristics and different characteristics of different device model files at a preferred temperature, and simulated results are matched with the datasheets of the device, individually.

This can be of greater help to designers because they don't need to focus on modeling the device again and again whenever they are designing different circuits.
