Hey guys,
Anyone got a model of a 150V regulator tube? As this, as I guess, isn´t too critical I have until now used a 150V zener in disguise . Do you think this is good enough?

Hi,

If you open STANDARD.DIO (in the cmp subdirectory... path something like ---> program files/LTC/LTspiceIV/lib/cmp/standard.dio
and append the following to it, you get a few tube rectifiers and voltage regulator tubes. If you then place a diode on your schematic, these parts will appear in your drop down menu. Note that each part is a line of text, in case this gets "folded over" during the posting.

Sorry so late with the response... this is the first time I've logged on in a bit... busy.

Hey Stephie,

Thanks for all the models. They will come in handy in later designs.

I did it this way using a 150V std zener that I renamed:

.MODEL 150C2 D(IS=1.65E-10 RS=327 TT=5.01E-8 CJO=4.66E-11 M=0.33 + BV=147.3 IBV=0.00833 )

Then I redesigned a diode-asy. But I just noticed I get an error-message when trying to open it. It works like it should in an *.asc though.

Hi Lars,
I get a duplicate pin number when I open that "assembly" file. It netlists like..
Version 4
SymbolType CELL
LINE Normal 0 -48 0 -21
LINE Normal 0 48 0 21
LINE Normal 20 8 12 8
LINE Normal 16 12 16 4

LINE Normal 13 11 19 5
CIRCLE Normal 32 32 -32 -32

SYMATTR Prefix X
SYMATTR Value 150C2
SYMATTR Description This symbol is for use with a subcircuit macromodel that you supply.

PIN 0 48 NONE 0
PINATTR PinName 2
PINATTR SpiceOrder 2
PIN 16 32 NONE 8
PINATTR SpiceOrder 1
PIN 0 0 NONE 8
PINATTR SpiceOrder 3

Open one of the other ASY files in a test editor and you'll see each PIN has 2 attributes to it. You have 2 with no SpiceOrder attribute and notice that there are two SpiceOrder 1 attributed pins. That's the duplication I think.

All the best,
Stephie <3
