I've just started using the free version of LT Spice and haven't had a problem doing simulations as long as the components are in the library. Now I need to do a simulation using a component that's not in the LT Spice library, the 1N4001 diode. Somebody sent me the model for the 1N4001, which is great. So my question is, after you put a diode symbol in the schematic, how do you assign parameters to it? Here is the text I received for the
1N4001: *SRC=1N4001;DI_1N4001;Diodes;Si; 50.0V 1.00A 3.00us Diodes, Inc. diode.MODEL DI_1N4001 D ( IS=76.9p RS=42.0m BV=50.0 IBV=5.00u
- CJO=39.8p M=0.333 N=1.45 TT=4.32u )
Based on the text for the diode models in LTSpice, I guess I need a string of text that looks something like:
.model 1N4001 D( IS=76.9p RS=42.0m BV=50.0 IBV=5.00u
- CJO=39.8p M=0.333 N=1.45 TT=4.32u )
First, obviously I put a diode symbol in the schematic; then what?
