fwb diode bridge modell error

[lidi]

Hi!

I discovered some error in the fwb rectifiers modells. The reverse breakdown voltage is set to 100V even on parts that have 1kV ratings in real life. For example: 3N252. When rectifying 230V AC, then it not works.

As i see, many modell at the fwb section have this error too.  (multisim ver: 10.1.357)

Hi lidi,

Thanks for bringing this up. I will notice the Multisim developers.

How to fix it.... double-click on the component... then from the value tab, click on the Edit Model button, and then on the spice text scroll down until you see the variable that is shown on the attached picture, you should see that it shows 100, change it to 1000. And then click on Change Part Model to finish.
