Part Number:TPS54A20
Tool/software:TINA-TI or Spice Models
TI,
I'm writing because I have been working with TI-TINA models to simulate the transient behavior of the TPS54A20, the issue is that the third party model I need to properly simulate feedback that feeds the FB pin on the TPS has an encrypted model for PSpice.
The third party manufacturer has their part available in LTSpice's library, so I can use that to model the feedback input, but TI's TPS54A20 PSpice model is encrypted as well. So I cant model the full loop.
Therefore I have the same problem regardless of which tool I use it seems, with the exception of PSpice.
If I use TI-TINA, then the TPS54A20 can simulate, but the third party component cant because it is PSpice encrypted.
If I use LTSpice, then the third party component can simulate, but the TPS54A20 transient model cant because it is PSpice encrypted.
So I the only solution I see here is to (a) get PSpice (b) request an unencrypted model from either TI or the third party manufacturer. (c) build a test bench and measure it manually, skipping sim altogether.
I'd be interested in other options?
Thanks
