I posted the first group of new spice tube models I made on my website. http://www.joeltunnah.com
They are in both 3f4 and PSpice formats, and were generated using Adrei Frolov's awesome Curve Captor application.
12AX7, 12AU7, 12AT7, ECC88, and 6SN7 are done so far. They are very accurate, and match the published plate curves exactly.
Enjoy!

Is "LT Spice" the same as "LT Switcher CAD"?
I believe so. In which case, I'd love to have these models converted. You know, if its not too much trouble.
Kofi
Done. The library now has 3F4, PSpice, and LT Spice formats for each tube.
And would it kill ya to get me a cup of coffee? Jeez!
Thanks!

Hi Kevin,
I might generate models of those tubes... eventually. I can't say when for sure though. My main focus with spice is optimizing preamp stages, and transformerless circuits like oscillators.
In the meantime, surely there are others who can install and run Andrei Frolov's program? It wasn't all that difficult to run in Windows. Search on the "beta testers wanted" thread. It contains all the details.

Joel,
I know it's off-topic, but do you know of any Spice models for DACs? Not specific audio DAC, just the R-2R variety. I don't seem to be able to find them on the 'net, but I'm sure there are some available somewhere.
Thanks anyway,
Jan Didden
Hi everybody,
I did trace the datasheets of a few triodes, including 26, 45, 50, 2A3, 300B DHTs, and a few of interesting octals (including 6SN7, 6SL7, 6BX7, 6BL7, 6AS7) and novals (including ECC88, 5687, 417A, 437A). I'm attaching the zip file with my latest collection of macro models, and expanded versions for Spice 3F4, PSpice, and LTSpice.
And yes, there are Windows and MacOS ports of Curve Captor now. Have fun .

Jack,
Thanks a bunch, I'll take a look-see if my Spice (Proteus VSM) can handle this. At the very minimum I was to just go and cobble up a very macro model of a bunch of resistors and switches, but that would only be useable for a proof-of-concept type sim.
Thanks again,
Jan Didden

Andrei,
Does the program recognize more than one Ip or Vp marker per value? In other words, can I place an Ip=10ma marker at each junction across the grid to improve accuracy, for example?
I ask because I've had some difficulty with certain scans of plate curves - they are warped, but only in a few areas of the grid. So, the end result is that the model is off.
Thanks for your help!
