LTspice - Error message:"Too few parameters"

Nov 03, 2006 2 Replies

Hello,



I created a symbol for the 74HC367 and a .sub-file from an



74HC.lib-File from Orcad. When I want to run the simulation, the following error message occurs:

"Too few parameters for subcircuit type "74hc367" (instance: xu1)"



Here is the .sub-File:


*---------
  • 74HC367 Hex Bus Drivers with 3-STATE Outputs

  • The High-Speed CMOS Logic Data Book, 1988, TI
  • atl 7/18/89 Update interface and model names

+ tpzlty=26ns tpzlmx=48ns
+ tphzty=21ns tphzmx=48ns
+ tplzty=21ns tplzmx=48ns
+ )
*$

How can I solve this problem?



Many thanks in advance. Robert

Hello RDA,

LTspice is compatible to PSPICE at "analog" devices but not for digital devices. The devices for digital circuits are totally different among all SPICE programs.

In LTspice you should use the A-devices for digital parts. You can find a lot about it in the help pages of LTspice.

There are many examples for digital circuits in the "Files"-section of the Yahoo group. Just do a search for "digital".

Hello Helmut,

thank you for the hint with the A-Devices. I know the group for some month, but I didnt find anything about this problem. But now I will try your suggestions.

Best regards, Robert
