Now have a look at the following <strong>SPICE</strong> – Model, <strong>using</strong> the subcircuit „xformer_01“ with its connections<br />

1 / 2 / 3 / 4:<br />

(Lleak is the name for the flux leakage inductances which represent the part of the flux who does not run<br />

through both main inductances leaded by the magnetic core of the transformer. All other circuit elements<br />

correspond to the above diagram):<br />

Explanation:<br />

Every line starts with the name of the part, followed by the numbers of the nodes between this part is inserted in<br />

the circuit. And at last you find the parts value.<br />

In praxis the magnetic coupling is always below „1“ (due to the flux leakage). So always insert a value smaller<br />

than 1 (here: k = 0.999). Some <strong>SPICE</strong> versions start a protest action if you don’t follow this advice.<br />

Primary and secondary winding use the same number of turns. So you have to enter the same inductance value<br />

to get a 1:1 - transformer.<br />

Note:<br />

The description of the circuit starts always with .SUBCKT …………… and ends with .ENDS<br />

================================================================================<br />

Very important:<br />

a) The finished model is named xformer_01.lib an should be saved in the folder<br />

Programs / LTC / <strong>LTspice</strong><strong>IV</strong> / lib / sub<br />

where all other LTC-<strong>SPICE</strong>-models are already located. Please pay attention to the correct path and the correct<br />

extension when saving this file...…<br />

b) It is impossible to enter the turn ratio! The only possibility is to enter different primary and secondary main<br />

inductances and we’ll handle this in the next project.<br />
