Using the Library Manager of TINA, Part 2: Adding a Complete Spice Library

Adding a Complete Spice Library using  the TINA Library Manager

In most cases adding a Spice library to TINA is very simple. Using the comments in the models, everything is automatically recognized in the Library Manager and adding a whole library to TINA takes a few minutes only.

In the following tutorial video

after showing this general case we will also show how to add models where it is not possible automatically to find the connection between the Spice models and their graphic symbols.

Watch our tutorial video to see how to add a whole Spice library to TINA.

Using the Library Manager of TINA, Part 1: Adding a Simple 5 terminal Operational Amplifier to the Library

Adding a Simple 5 terminal Operational Amplifier to the Library

TINA has large libraries containing Spice models provided by semiconductor manufacturers such as Analog Devices, Texas Instruments and more.
You can add more models to these libraries or create your own Spice library using TINA’s Library Manager (LM).

Watch our tutorial video 

to see how to add a Spice model to TINA’s Spice libraries.

New! Analysis links in TINACloud

New! Analysis links in TINACloud

A new exciting feature in TINACloud that now you can add links to your circuits

which allow you to carry our most TINACloud analyses simply by clicking the links without using TINAclouds’s menus. This feature is extremely useful when you create presentations for your customers.

Analysis Link with TINACloud, image 1

 

For example if you click the “Click here to run AC nodal analysis” link the following screen will appear.

AC Node voltages

By default is shows the rms voltage on the output(s). If you click with the cursor on any nodes (yellow boxes) of the circuit it will display the detailed nodal analysis data in a small window. Click You can repeat this any times until you press the Close button to finish the Nodal Analysis.

Further if you click the “Click here to run AC transient analysis” link, the Transient analysis will automatically run and the following screen will appear. You can now run cursor on the diagram or close the diagram and make further analyses.
