Simulate the SiC MOSFET PSpice model downloaded from infineon and encounter the errors

FormerMember over 1 year ago

I'm simulating the SiC MOSFET (IMW65R048M1H) PSpice model downloaded from infineon (https://www.infineon.com/cms/en/product/power/mosfet/silicon-carbide/discretes/imw65r048m1h/?tab=~%27simulation_models#!designsupport) and I used cadence virtuoso. I created a PSpice cell view to build the subckt. However, when building the "MF" model and "bodydiodemodel" model, I encounter the errors 'unexpected comma' or 'unexpected ='. I can't seem to identify the issues causing these errors. Could anyone please help me resolve this ?

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Wayne

Hi,

I guess you use Spectre as simulator. If you do you have to tell it to expect Spice syntax at the begin of the model:

simulator lang=spice

Or include the file with:

pspice_include “<psspice_netlist>.ckt”

See:

Kind regards,

Marc

I think the issue is that the models don't appear to be PSPICE models, but for the Simetrix simulator. See RE: importing pspice model
