Hi all,
Super impressed by KiCAD, learned a lot in a short time and succesfully outsourced my first board in China!
I’m trying out spice simulation in KiCAD 6.0.6 windows.
Running a simple simulation with only a resistor connected to an AC supply works (top and middle image below).
Then when replacing the resistor with a spice compatible diode (bottom image)
Results in the following error:
Note: No compatibility mode selected!
warning, can’t find model ‘diode’ from line
d1 net-v1-pad1 net-v1-pad2 diode
Circuit: KiCad schematic
Error on line 3 or its substitute:
d1 net-v1-pad1 net-v1-pad2 diode
could not find a valid modelname
Background thread stopped with timeout = 0
Error: circuit not parsed.
I tried boty the spice compatible diode and the pspice compatible diode. Both are not working.
What am I doing wrong? (sorry, cannot upload the model as a new user).
Thanks!
