Hello,

I have increased the Transient Time Point Iteration from 20 to 150 and got an error as in the text file. The simulation worked fine with 20.
How to fix the problem?

Thank You

Why do you want such a large time step? Just based on my experience with other simulation software (outside of electronics), You are likely causing the simulator to go crazy because the time constant of some of your LCR networks are below your time steps.

Actually, a decently accurate simulation should require time steps to be about 1 to 5% of the time constant.

Switch back to 20.
