The library is comprised of the following files: -----------------------------------------------The xxx.LIB file represents the Spice model library. The xxx.SLB file contains the terminal/graphics information required by the PSpice graphic user interface "Schematics". INSTALLATION -----------To install the library, copy all xxx.LIB and xxx.SLB files into your directory: x:\"PSpice working directory"\(user-)LIB\ The library files must then be activated under PSpice. Proceed as follows in the simulation program PSpice-Schematics: 1.Install the library file xxx.LIB as a permanent library ("ADD LIBRARY*") in submenu ANALYSIS -> LIBRARY AND INCLUDE FILES ... 2.Install the symbol data file xxx.SLB for the "Schematics" graphic interface in submenu OPTIONS -> EDITOR CONFIGURATION -> LIBRARY SETTINGS =============================================================== IDX_E120_L2.LIB (V1.5) -----------------This library contains level-2 models (device temperature is set by the parameter TJ) for the following INFINEON 1200 V Diodes devices/chip-models including lead inductances related to packages: IDP04E120 = IDB04E120 4A/1200V IDP09E120 = IDB09E120 9A/1200V IDP12E120 = IDB12E120 12A/1200V IDP18E120 = IDB18E120 18A/1200V IDP30E120 = IDB30E120 30A/1200V =============================================================== For modelling, we recommend to set the following options in ANALYSIS -> SETUP -> OPTIONS : 1) Due to the high current values in power electronic circuits and the

large dynamic range in currents, it is suggested that the user increases the default values for ABSTOL, CHGTOL and VNTOL to ABSTOL > 1pA (hence 1nA or even 100nA). 2) To avoid problems in finding a solution, it is suggested that ITL2=200 and ITL4=400 be used. 3) Depending on the circuit, RELTOL may have to be changed from its default setting. 4) If further convergence problems arise, it is suggested that the user refer to the simulators users guide ===================================================================== * Note: * * Altough models can be a useful tool in evaluating device * * performance, they cannot model exact device performance * * under all conditions, nor are they intended to replace * * breadboarding for final verification! * * * * Models provided by INFINEON TECHNOLOGIES AG are not warranted by * * INFINEON TECHNOLOGIES AG * * as fully representing all of the specifications and operating * * characteristics of the semiconductor product to which the * * model relates. * * The models describe the characteristics of typical devices. * * In all cases, the current data sheet information for a given * * device is the final design guideline and the only actual * * performance specification. * * INFINEON TECHNOLOGIES AG does not assume any liability arising * * from the model use.
