Mosfet Model Maker Excel
I present a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet that can be used to make a SPICE model from the part's datasheet. In a previous video, I used Mathcad to make my MOSFET SPICE model, however, I no longer have access to Mathcad and Excel is a great alternative. I show how to use the ID vs VDS family of curve to extract the DC characteristic and the parasitic capacitance to get the AC characteristic and then show how to verify with SPICE. Please keep in mind that this is a first order model. I have successfully used this procedure to model devices that have no SPICE model and have gotten good results. If you find this video useful, please subscribe and share. Request for the Excel spreadsheet can be ...

Input Filter Design, and simulation using the negative resistance model.
Просмотров 1,7 тыс.7 месяцев назад
This video is a more comprehensive video showing the design procedure to satisfy MIL STD 461C. I also define the Middlebrook Criteria and show how the damping affects the output impedance of the input filter. I also show how to calculate the negative resistance of a converter and use a negative resistor to demonstrate the stability of the input filter. Questions or comments can be sent to rbola...
TopSPICE10 FRA and Schematic Probing features
Просмотров 563Год назад
Here is a short video showing TopSPICE improvements of the Frequency Response Analyzer (FRA) and the new schematic probing similar to LTSPICE. I show how to setup the FRA menu and explain the new voltage amplitude sweeping signal which helps in extracting the FRA signal in high gain power supply. Questions or comments can be sent to rbola35618@aol.com.
Bode 100 Making Low Impedance Measurement using the BWIC Jig
Просмотров 902Год назад
When making a low impedance measurement, the Two Port Method is the preferred way of making low impedance measures below 1mohm. However, if you clean the contacts of the BWIC (specified at 20 mohm to 600 kohm) and PCB, and use some shielding, you can extend the measurement of the BWIC down to 1mOhms or less. Questions or comments can be sent to rbola35618@aol.com.
Bode 100 Low Capacitance, High Impedance measurement

LTSPICE 17.1 FRA vs TOPSPICE Version10 FRA

In this video, I compare the simulation speed between TopSPICE Version 10 and LTSPICE. I simulate a Royer supply and made duplicate models in both simulators. I then performed a transient response analysis. TopSPICE V10 seems to be faster than LTSPICE. I then compared the FRA capabilities of both simulators.

TopSPICE Version 10 New FRA
Просмотров 838Год назад
Penzar Development just introduced an improved and faster SPICE simulator. One of the features they improved was the FRA. The FRA now saves all of the node's voltages and currents at steady state, stores those values, and reloads the values on subsequent FRA sweeps. The new algorithm reduced simulation time by 4 to 6 time. I show how to setup the simulator and show the FRA results and compare t...

Measuring switching power loss in a MOSFET can be challenging. The Siglent has a power loss measurement feature. I show that measuring the Vds and the Ids, the scope will multiply those two plots and display the switching power loss. A second and more accurate method, is to enter the Rdson of the MOSFET and have it multiplied by the Ids_on^2 to get the switching power loss. I hope you find this...

    Hi Robert, Thank you for this video. Question, in the title you mention that this is a transformer and so I am assuming that this is a ferrite material with no air gap. However, in your video you mention that this is an inductor. Is this an inductor with an air gap or a transformer?

    • @RobertBolanos
      @RobertBolanos 2 месяца назад

      Hi Reni, If I recall it had a gap. Adding a gap will make the inductor go into saturation at a higher voltage. If you look at a B vs H curve, the make the slope of the curve less so the saturation happens at a higher H and therefore higher current. I hope that makes sense. Have a good day. RB

    Thank you for your great presentation. But i have any questions. What about resonant frequency of converter, in this point our converter has lower impedance, and yes Middlebrook Criteria need to be satisfied in all frequency domain less that our Fsw. Can you explain, because your Impedance calculation don't reflect this, and cutoff frequency off your filter is designed only using needed attenuation and don't exclude intersection between peak of filter impedance and lower impedance of converter at resonant frequency, and if i understand correctly, this model of converter don't use variable negative resistance like real converter is. Thanks you very much and please correct me if i misunderstood something!

    Hello Robert, I'm trying to duplicate your results using LTSpice and i'm only coming up with a max current from the FFT at 100Khz as ~456mA not 645mA. Could you point out the initial similation that gave you those results?

    • @RobertBolanos
      @RobertBolanos 5 месяцев назад

      Hi Robert. Make sure you do a long enough transient simulation to where it comes to steady state. Then zoom in the the end and you need enough cycles Maybe 50 cycle or more so the the FFT will be accurate enought. One other thing the effects LTspice is the engine you use. There are two simulator. The first simulator is aimed at speed at the expense of accuracy. So in somewhere in the command you can select to use the more accurate slice engine. Hope yhe helps

      @robertthurman8412 5 месяцев назад

      @@RobertBolanos Hello Robert, Thanks for the information. I just tried the settings that you described and I'm getting the same results. I ran the simulation for 500ms and zoomed in on the latter portion of the steady state window for the output current source (or current source being injected into the line) and FFT'd the window region only and ~ 456mA. Now, I'm assuming that the FFT of the current source shouldn't matter if the dampening network along with the filter inductor and capacitor were connected as we are only looking to see the value of the 100kHz harmonic of the current being injected... correct? I also see in your images that you have the source voltage at 28V but sometimes at 0V, does this matter? I wouldn't think so, but again, I'm trying to correlate your measurements against mine. I'm looking at using another spice engine - Q-Spice (new Michael Englehardt simulator). Would it matter which simulator I tried? Has anyone else duplicated this issue or Roberts results?

      @RobertBolanos 6 месяцев назад

      Yes, I tried to make all the spice parameter the same. The reason TopSPICE is faster when it come to the FRA, I worked to the developer in doing an algorithm to where the first simulation or frequency sweep takes the longest and the simulation time has to long enough for the circuit to come to steady state (SS). I asked that that once the circuit is at steady state, to save all the nodes and component current anc voltage and use those SS values at the start of all subsequency frequency sweep. This means that the rest of the simulation start at SS time and not from 0. This saves alot of time. I hope it make sense. Robert
