--------------------------

With a higher value for R (around 10 ohms) spice can resolve to a DC operating point. At R = 1 I get "Failed to find DC finding operating points for AC analysis".

Any suggestions?

I have tried (most) of the suggestions listed.

  1. Perhaps look at recalculating Va = Ma*Ts. My value for Va was over an order of magnitude larger than yours. I dumped your netlist into LTspice and increased the value -- ran for me.

  2. I got Va = Ma*Ts*Rf, which is maybe why my Va was smaller.
