Is there any way to use PSPICE transient models?

I need to model a TI TPS3801-01 in some complex power control situations.  I can get what TI calls a PSPICE transient model.  (attached)

 

I don't recognize what they are supplying as something I can use in MS.  Is there any way to get an MS SPICE model from this?

 

Thanks.

Hi Dbur,

 

We did take a look at the files you posted - they are native OrCAD files with encrypted information. We don't seem to be able to view the details of the model therefore we cannot change it to Multisim SPICE at this moment. Sorry about that.

In general- yes, Multisim supports the vast majority of PSpice-based models (intended for transient analysis or otherwise)

 

I would be able to help you create a Multisim component using the TPS3801 PSpice model, but unfortunately it is encrypted (you can see this by opening TPS3801E18_TRANS.lib in a text editor)

 

Sorry about this.
