Cannot get correct output in PSpice with the Buck Converter PSpice Transient Model from TI
I obtained the LM76005-Q1 transient model from the Texas Instrument website and imported it to PSpice. The website also provides a Design Calculator software, so I basically use it to determine other ...

I need to implement DC and transient analysis of diode and transistor circuits. How can I do that?
I am doing a MATLAB project at my university.
I have tried to implement DC and transient analysis of diode and transistor circuits by linearizing them and using iterative methods, but the results don'...

pseudo transient analysis issue
Note: pseudo transient analysis issue means that the LTSpice simulator is stucked with running pseudo transient analysis forever without any output waveform results.
The pseudo transient analysis ...

Problem with Micro-cap 12
I hope it is okay to post a software question here. Please let me know if not.
I've been learning about Microcap 12 (a SPICE simulator), and have been quite impressed. However, recently I got stuck. ...

How can I make LTSpice calculate the transient response starting from a time different than t=zero?
I'm creating a schematic and I'm trying to simulate it using LTSpice.
However, my RC time constant is quite large, and I'd like Spice to simulate only from around 10ms onward. I know that if i set ....

Inserting an unused voltage source in LTspice messes up transient results
This took me three days to figure out. Consider this simple circuit in LTspice:
Looks pretty innocent. The output is a 1V sine wave, as expected. Going to View->FFT, setting number of data points to ...

What is meant by "DC operating point analysis" in SPICE programs?
Here is a paragraph I came across:
Since transient analysis is dependent on time, it uses different
analysis algorithms, control options with different
convergence-related issues and different ...

Spice definition of resistor/capacitor
I am trying to understand a Spice definition of a circuit and transient analysis on it. I have kind of "inherited" this and can't ask the original creator; my Spice memories from university are pretty ...

About SPICE: Should I use transient analysis or DC linear analysis?
My question is specifically linked to an exam problem where I had to find a function in terms of time for the current on a capacitor and a resistor. The circuit was very simple: A current time-variant ...
