Can't simulate. ERROR(ORPSIM-15143)

Hello guys,

I am trying to simulate the following circuit but I keep receiving this error message: ERROR(ORPSIM-15143) - Voltage source and/or inductor loop involving E_E2. You may break the loop by adding a series resistance. I checked to see if there were any short-circuits but I couldn't find any, so If anyone could help me I would be very glad.

Thank you guys.

Hi,

You have a short betweent gat and groung with the Vpulse. To avoid it, just place a small resistor betwwen gat and the input of E for example. You have to do it with the three E componentes.

Hello, 

Thank you for your reply, but I still couldn't get the simulation to work. I tried running the same circuit in another PC with an older version and it worked. It seems that I inverted the connections of the E elements. Still, when I corrected the problem on the circuit above in the newer version it still didn't work, but now I got a different error, ERROR(ORPSIM-16058): Command ignored. In the older version though it didn't have de parameter AC on the VSIN source.

Thank you,

Pedro.

Hi,

This is what I did and it worked:

One way to solve this issue is to add a series of resistance to break the loop. You can add a small bitlife resistance in series with the inductor or voltage source that is causing the loop, which should prevent the loop from occurring.

Hello all,

I am using pspice for TI to simulate my MOSFET gate driver design. When I use TI model of isolaed gate drive UCC20520, I got this error:

ERROR(ORPSIM-15143): Voltage source and/or inductor loop involving X_U1.V_V11. You may break the loop by adding a series resistance

The interesting is that V_V11 does not exsit in my desig. I tested it for other TI isolated gate driver and I got the same error. I could not finf the problem. Is there anybody that can help me? I apperciate his/her cooperation!
