Support encrypted models

Status: New

 

If encrypted models were supported more vendors might be willing to release their models for general use.  I've heard quite often from vendors that they don't give out good models because they don't want to make it easier for someone to reverse engineer their parts.

 

See LTspice for example.  It would be great if MS could support LT encrypted models. As it is now I usually have to go back to LTspice to simulate LT devices.

 

TI also releases encrypted PSPICE models for many of their parts.  https://e2e.ti.com/support/development_tools/webench_design_center/f/234/t/36943

 

This would be great for their switching regulator models.  I'd much rather use MS to simulate, as the interface is much more modern (not like an MSDOS app from 1990).  It would also save some duplication of work.
