The popular circuit simulator platform SPICE2G.6 was chosen for the development of an advanced macromodel for the 6N134 optocoupler. The subcircuit model presented in this paper properly simulates DC and transient characteristics over the temperature range {minus}55 to 125{degrees}C using a single parameter set and the .TEMP statement available within SPICE. The model's limitations and predictive accuracy relative to measured data are described.
