DESIGN TOOLS

Microchip provides the basic design tools needed for

the MCP6141/2/3/4 family of op amps.

5.1

SPICE Macro Model

The latest SPICE macro model for the MCP6141/2/3/4

op amps is available on our web site at www.micro-

chip.com. This model is intended to be an initial design

tool that works well in the op amp’s linear region of

operation at room temperature. See the model file for

information on its capabilities.

Bench testing is a very important part of any design and

cannot be replaced with simulations. Also, simulation

results using this macro model need to be validated by

comparing them to the data sheet specifications and

characteristic curves.

5.2

FilterLab® Software

The FilterLab software is an innovative tool that

simplifies analog active filter (using op amps) design. It

is available free of charge from our web site at

www.microchip.com.

The

FilterLab

software

tool

provides full schematic diagrams of the filter circuit with

component values. It also outputs the filter circuit in

SPICE format, which can be used with the macro

model to simulate actual filter performance.
