I want to know if it is possible to model a photodiode InGasAs panchromatic PIN , in accord with datasheet, in simulator SPICE MicroCAP 12.Because the supllier where I boughit it has not a SPICE model.And if it is possible, which are those steps. Here it is data-sheet https://www.tme.eu/en/details/ig17x1000s4i/photodiodes/laser-components/ And below I will attach a electric schematic, a transimpedance amplifier with phototdiode, used like receiver of smoke.I want to monitor graphically the impulse of photodiode in function of output of transimpedance for sensibilty. There is type of photodiode,which I found it in library Micro-CAP 12, it is simpe photodiode,which does not follow in accord in datasheet.There is photodiode macro.

Thank you.

Hi
You have the photodiode connected wrong and the symbol is incorrect.

According to Photo_2:
The control terminal is "IN". "A" is anode. "C" is cathode.
The control terminal is used to simulate the amount of "light" absorbed by the diode and controls the current thru the diode.
