13.1.1.1 TINA Simulation Model Features
The device model is available as part of the TINA model library. The model includes numerous features intended to speed designer progress over a wide range of application requirements. The following list shows the performance parameters included in the model:
- For the small-signal response shape with any external circuit:
- Differential open loop gain and phase
- Parasitic input capacitance
- Open-loop differential output impedance
- For noise simulations:
- Input differential spot voltage noise and a 100-kHz 1/f corner
- Input current noise on each input with a 1-MHz 1/f corner
- For time-domain, step-response simulations:
- Differential slew rate
- I/O headroom models to predict clipping
- Fine-scale, DC precision terms:
The typical characterization curves show more detail than the macromodels can provide; some of those unmodeled features include:
- Harmonic distortion
- Temperature drift in DC error terms (VIO and IOS)
