What are some tips for modeling optocouplers for Pspice?
. j/ f9 }) D1 v4 _% k2 j" |Though Model Editor does not provide a template for either an optocoupler or for a phototransistor, it can beused create components of these models. For example,you can use Model Editor to model the electricalcharacteristics of the input LED of an optocoupler., H( p' y( V* h0 M
In the case of the optocoupler,you need to create a model for a LED input,and also for a single BJTphototransistor output optocoupler.3 m1 X f2 u8 | A/ d# x: ?: h

To model LED input, fit the forward current vs. voltage curve of the LED, and the LED capacitance curve toa PSpice diode. These curves are available in datasheets.1 Z+ S! n. T0 W2 ]+ N1 [ `

In the sample model shown below, the Gpcg source models the CTR curve. In this case, two regions were fitseparately, the region If<=10mA and the region If>10mA, where If is the LED forward current. The outputcurrent of the Gpcg source is the phototransistor collector current.
