Intusoft Adds New SPICE Modeling Capabilities

	Intusoft has released an upgrade to its popular SPICE modeling program, SpiceMod. The new SpiceMod program (version 2.4) adds the ability to model GTOs and Triacs from manufacturer's data sheet parameters. In addition, more accurate SCR, IGBT, and Zener diode models have been added. SpiceMod also allows engineers to make SPICE models from data sheet parameters quickly and easily. Previous modeling experience is not needed. The models are stored in ASCII text files and can be used with ANY SPICE simulator on ANY computer platform. SpiceMod can be used to model Diodes (Silicon, Germanium, GaAs, Schottky, PN, Zeners), Bipolar Transistors (small-signal, power, Darlingon), JFETS, MOSFETS (Power and small-signal), SCRs, Triacs, and IGBTs. 

	SpiceMod alleviates the difficulties associated with creating SPICE models and even allows novice SPICE users to develop models in minutes. SpiceMod understands both data sheet parameters and SPICE model parameters. It also understands how to convert from one to the other. The program is unique because it will use the data sheet values you provide to make estimates for data sheet parameters that you do not have. This feature allows SpiceMod to always create a realistic model because key SPICE model parameters will never be left at their default values. 

Comprehensive Documentation and Test Circuits
	A comprehensive set of model test circuits (SpiceNet schematics, IsSpice netlists, plus hardcopy documentation and instructions) is included. The circuits can be used to characterize and evaluate SPICE models. The circuits allow any SPICE program to produce the same curves and graphs seen in the manufacturer's data sheets.

	SpiceMod 2.4 is priced at $300 and is available immediately. Upgrades from previous versions are available for $50. Interested parties can contact Intusoft or their local Intusoft dealer. A demo of the SpiceMod program is available on Intusoft's Web site.
