Thanks for your reply.
I added a sin wave to power supply, and then run tran simulation, finally check the output frequency.
And I calculate psr of VCO = delta(fout)/delta(vdd).
Is this method right?
Hi, all
I am using noise_table function, but I don't konw how to use it.
for example:
I have -60dbc/hz at 10hz and -70dbc/hz at 100hz. so how to write it into noise_table?
I write it as
noise_table({10,-60,100,-70},"noitab");
Is it right?
If it is wrong, how to describe it?
thank you!
I was wrong yesterday......your code greatly helped me! Thanks! And I get the reason which u found.
SNM is static noise margin, so u can't run tran simulation to get SNM. u should run dc simulation by sweep the noise voltage. I have tryed it. The two methods have the same results.
Hi, all.
I am simulating a band gap reference. It have four pins to do current trim.
When I sweep these four pins by parametric analysis tool, It gives me a different result from ordinary(change the pin's signal by manual) simulation.
I am puzzled by it, and I confirm the setting is right...
thank you ,all. I found the reason why the efficiency I simulated was above 100%. It is my fault. I calculated the efficiency too early when the system is not steady.Thanks again.
thanks again,FvM. But when I use the calculator in the candence to measure the Iavg, I found the efficiency >100% in small load current. Then I think this method is questionable.
thank you, FvM. What you said is very helpful for me. I also found that when I used Irms instead of Iavg, the efficiency was lower. There is still a question: when the load current is very small, current flowing through the inductor will be reversed. Then the Iavg is incorrent to calculate the...
thank you for your reply, manojdharap. I am a beginner of dc-dc convertor, so I am just simulating a basic current mode one and it is integrated except L, C, compensation net. there are current sensing circuit, osc, comparator, driver and so on. these control circuits' power is constant. I can't...
hello,all.
i'm simulating a buck dc-dc by candence, and i am not sure how to measure the efficiency. someone told me measure the rms of input current, then multiply vdd, and this is input power. but i don't understand, why rms, not average?
and another question is the other control part's of...
