Er.. but thats the point. It wont run "as is" on other spices. If the model is converted, sure, it might be made to work on other spices. For starters, the adc_bridge is an XSpice specific internal model, so wont run in LTSpice. In addition, it is an extended model, i.e. it has additional parameters not in standard XSpice. > > These are obviously "built-in" functions of SIMetrix.

Digital stuff of XSPice is handeled by its digital engine.

That's how I generated my SMPS models.

Nope, not slower.
