5.0
Microchip provides the basic design tools needed for
the MCP6H01/2/4 family of op amps.
5.1
The latest SPICE macro model for the MCP6H01/2/4
op amp is available on the Microchip web site at
www.microchip.com. The model was written and tested
in PSPICE owned by Orcad (Cadence). For other
simulators, it may require translation.
The model covers a wide aspect of the op amp’s
electrical specifications. Not only does the model cover
voltage, current and resistance of the op amp, but it
also covers the temperature and noise effects on the
behavior of the op amp. The model has not been
verified outside the specification range listed in the op
amp data sheet. The model behaviors under these con-
ditions cannot be guaranteed to match the actual op
amp performance.
Moreover, the model is intended to be an initial design
tool. Bench testing is a very important part of any
design and cannot be replaced with simulations. Also,
simulation results using this macro model need to be
validated by comparing them to the data sheet
specifications and characteristic curves.
5.2
Microchip’s FilterLab software is an innovative software
tool that simplifies analog active filter (using op amps)
design. Available at no cost from the Microchip web site
at www.microchip.com/filterlab, the FilterLab design
tool provides full schematic diagrams of the filter circuit
with component values. It also outputs the filter circuit
in SPICE format, which can be used with the macro
model to simulate actual filter performance.
5.3
MAPS is a software tool that helps semiconductor
professionals efficiently identify Microchip devices that fit
a particular design requirement. Available at no cost from
the Microchip web site at www.microchip.com/maps,
MAPS is an overall selection tool for Microchip’s product
portfolio that includes analog, memory, MCUs and
DSCs. Using this tool, you can define a filter to sort
features for a parametric search of devices and export
side-by-side technical comparison reports. Helpful links
are also provided for data sheets, purchases and
sampling of Microchip parts.
