Convert LM386 into Multisim

Hi all,

I manage that the Multisim in our college doesnt have the LM386 component.
As i know we can create a component by our own in Multisim.

Can anyone here teach me how to convert the datasheet to Multisim?
I have the PSpice file for my OrCad but not for Multisim. Plz advise

 

Here is a link to a tutorial to create a new component.

You can also take an existing component that is very similar and just make adjustments to it, and even use an existing SPICE model in place of the original one. Make sure to allocate your pins properly.

Good luck

 

There is also a forum just for Multisim users. They work as a community to generate parts on occasion.

Use it with the component wizard in Multisim to build a 386.

I'll post it again here:

Can anyone tell me what should i put fir the pin 1 and pin 8 type?
is bidirectional, passive, NC or power?

and pin 2 is my -ve feedback input and izit only put input for the type?
also for pin 3 +ve feedback input?
and also the pin7 the bypass?

Can tell me what to put for pin parameter above pin?

Thank You

 

izit copy your this PSpice file and save it to a .txt file?
or i need to save in a different name file? such as orcad using .lib...
Mutisim used what file?

 

I pasted that in the model part using the "Model Wizard" in multisim, then chose "copy" for a footprint, and assigned the pins.

When you start the "Model Wizard", it walks you through it, the hard part is the actual electrical model above. I choose "copy from" for another amplifer (i believe Iused an op-amp), once the model is added, the pins are assigned correctly, they only need to be matched to the footprint for ultiboard.

 

But i face a problem when im in the step 4. refer the attachment here and have a look.
When i proceed to step 6 i paste the code that u paste it here and click next, it does come out an error. refer the 2nd attachment.
