@dgta
Maybe your spelling? Be sure your include directive matches the name of the XXXX.XXX file and the "value" in your triode symbol matches the subckt being called in your include file.
.subckt 6CG7_GE
then your triode symbol "value=6CG7_GE"
If you change the name of the subckt, the .ENDS XXXX line has to match the .SUBCKT XXXX line or just .ENDS without anything following.
edit: We cross posted. Glad you got it straightened out. 🙂

Sound Technology ST-1000A FM stereo modulator sim
Hello folks,
One of my projects on the go is a FM stereo modulator. My goal is a very low distortion fm stereo generator to be used with a very low distortion RF gen. I have two rf sg, a HP8656B which is around 0.1% thd, even with a very low thd ext osc, as I measure using a hp 8901A. i also have the 8901A test source, 11715A that I would like to use as my fm st gen
I have not decided exactly how I was going to do the fm st gen, since reading up, there are a few ways to do it. Some methods are dead simple, just a small mcu. I saw some advance methods of using a dual DDS to create the 19 & 38KHz signals, since phase is an important in having a clean signal. that is another project for sure
In my search I came across the ST 1000A design and tried to simulate it, well it looks like I have it running properly.
Thought that I would contribute this simulation to the mix, since it even uses some logic. Maybe others can help me and see ways we can improve on it. I am not a expert, but I think that the output filter can be improved upon, any filter experts out there?
I know ST sold the 1000A with an optional improved output filter but I can not find that information. I guess the answer is to add more poles to the filter.
Also reduction the 19Khz and 38KHz components is desirable.
Enjoy

Mooly,
I read your tutorial on adding 3d party models, and I watched the LT video as well, but I'm stuck on the learning curve.
I'm trying to add the model for a mosfet, specifically IRF820. Problem is, the model I got from Vishay's site is a .subckt not a .model. But a .subckt doesn't work on an intrinsic component, i.e. transistors, diodes, etc.
Is there a way around this? I don't want to have to create a new symbol every time I need to use a new component. Is there a simple way to translate the .subckt into a .model?

From what I understand this is not possible. The .model of a FET is really a first line simple model that has relatively few set variables that LT can understand. That limiting number of variables is written into the program itself for .models and so it just wouldn't understand what the other variables were.
The .subckt allows a far more complex part to be built up but I think you do have to create a new symbol for that part.

Ok, so is there a simple model of an IRF820 somewhere? What do people do when they need to use a common part that's not in the LTSpice internal library? Thanks
The easy options are to either use something 'similar' such as an IRF240 or take a model such as the IRF240 and simply alter the parameters in the text file substituting values that you know to be radically different. Depending on your circuit, you might be surprised just how little difference having the correct model makes... give or take.
Places like the Yahoo LTspice users group is probably the best place to ask for specific models.

I think I have a clue to possible resolution of this issue.
When I use tubes, I simply pick "Triode" from the "MISC" folder. It's a generic triode and I can link it to a .subckt. In fact I can probably use a triode and link it to the IRF820 .subckt. Apparently the items in the "MISC" folder are considered circuits and not simple components, even though most are components. Unfortunately there is no generic mosfet, or transistor of any kind, in that folder.
That seems like a gross oversight on LT's part, doesn't it?
So it seems all I need to do is generate a generic MOSFET and put it in the "MISC" folder. Trouble is, I don't know how to do that. Has anyone created generic components that work in the "MISC" folder?

I just modified the generic triode to look like a MOSFET and it works, but when it tries to run the IRF820 .subckt it gives errors. Apparently it still "knows" it's a triode, not just a 3-terminal black box.
FOUND IT!!!!

Very simple, just took me forever to find it. Mooly, you might want to include this simple trick with your tutorial, it wasn't obvious or easy to find.

I'm out of my depth on this I'm afraid although I think Spice 3 could be referring to the top tier 'Level 3' type models that include such things as self heating effects.

@dgta It looks like you opened the link in your browser and copied and pasted the text. That would explain the 'all in one line' issue. It would be much better to right click and choose "save link as" and download the library (.lib) file to your computer. 😉Thanks Jazbo, that was helpful. Unfortunately the Vishay site has the file all in one line, no line breaks at all. That didn't work when used as is. I separated the lines mostly by guessing, since I don't know how spice syntax works.
When you post a spice file, go advanced and use code tags ('#' Wrap
Code:
tags around selected text). That should eliminate any word wrap issues, as I have done below:
