Hello,

I am trying to use a TI Current Sense Amp in a qucs circuit. I have
followed the steps to convert the spice files to the qucs circuit file type
however it errors out.

I then attempted to run the command from the command line with:

qucsconv -i INA191_TINA_AIO/INA191A5.lib -o INA191A5.out -if spice -of qucs

And I am met with the error:

line 224: syntax error, unexpected Identifier, expecting ENDS_Action

This happens for all TI Spice files I have attempted to import. I have
verified the Spice files can work with ngspice, they are loaded and
simulated without issue in ngspice. I have also tried a simple single
subckt spice file as a sanity check. This can be converted with qucsconv.

I would appreciate the help. I am using the latest master branch as of
05/30/20

The TI INA191 spice files can be downloaded here:

I appreciate any and all help.

It seems that the .PARAM name = value is not known to qucsconv (syntax def. in parse_spice.ypp, parse_spice.lpp) . Also constants like {PWR(0.1u,0.5)/1E11}. I suppose the syntax of spice in qucsconv is outdated.

Workaround:

• Comment out the .PARAM line and substitute all occurances of name with the value.
• Replace constants like {PWR(0.1u,0.5)/1E11} with the actual value
  Its imaginable to do a script doing it automatically
