Having Trouble Importing component using component wizard Mulstisim

Hello,

 

I am having a lot of trouble trying to import a component using the component wizard in Multisim 8. 

The part I am trying to import is the SN74LVC1GU04 inverter: link here. I got the SPICE model and accessed the datasheet from the same website.

In the component wizard under component type, I selected Digital, and for component technology used TinyLogic_5V as they did not have LVC listed.

I set the pin count to 5 and copied the symbol information from the main database.

I added three hidden pins (VCC, GND, and a NC) following the naming scheme from the datasheet

I Mapped the symbol pins to the footprint pins and loaded the simulation model from a file (I used the Behavioral SPCIE model).

I mapped the symbol pins to the model nodes

All footprint numbers were taken from the datasheet

 

I get the following errors when I try to simulate a simple test circuit using this part:

 

Errors during netlist generation

Error in C:\filepath\02.CIR.cir(197):efalse nfalse vee value = {0}

eError on line 14 in C:\filepath\02.CIR.cir: au1 $du1.i1 [ $du1.o1 $du1.vcc $du1.gnd ] sn74lvc1gu04__inverter__1

e ERROR – unable to find definition of model sn74lvc1gu04__inverter__1

eError on line 60 in C:\filepath\02.CIR.cir: m_n_em_q1:xu1.o1 $2 $5:xu1.o1 $gnd $gnd nmeout

eunable to find definition of model nmeout – default assumed

 

I have been able to get the test circuit I am simulating running with a different inverter. 

 

I've called NI, and they aren't able to offer support as my version of Multisim is too old, so any help would be appreciated!

 

Thank you,

Austin
