Spice model LM3886 needed.

Spice model LM3886 needed also please.

Gerry had a model that did not work properly.

Gerry did you fix the model ?

Doesn't anyone need to simulate a LM3886 circuit using Spice ?
I've been looking all over and still have not found a model !

Anyone listening ?

Cheers.

Hello from Germany,

have anyone now a functional Lm3886 Spice Model?
Gerry´s model don´t works!

Greetings to this great forum and thanks

I tried that model too to no success. Thanx for the effort though. I imagine it worked for some specific resistor settings or network topology.

I wrote an e-mail to National Semiconductor asking for this or a model of some other similar LM chips. I imagine I may not hear back until after New Years however; or not at all.

Here's the Gerry's model... Had to do something to it to get it to "work" - don't remeber what though. I guess there was some inconsistancy in the pin order of LTspice's opamp symbol file or something.

This model works partially but is not very good. Both inverting and non-inverting circuits give results that are OK but the model has some issues with the rail current draw. For example, this model never clips to rails and the rail current is always only slightly higher than the current in the feedback loop - that is few milliamperes.

As I'm making a constant-current amp, those current oddities are what made me try to see it National Semi can help us out.
