Use Electronics Workbench Multisim.
 

total harmonic distortion help

Electronics Workbench Multisim ??
is it a software????

IN hspice I can get THD ,BUT in spectre i can not,
does somebody use spectre to calculator THD
 

total harmonic distorsion

An easy to determine the THD/SFDR or whatever, is to make use of the component fourier/fourier2ch. These two components are located in analogLib and they are specific to the cadence simulator spectre. If you place them in a schematic and run a transient anaysis, you will get the fourier coefficients of the corresponding waveform. And you will also get a summary of the HD2, HD3, THD and etc.

analoglib fourier

thanks for you help ,it help we a lot.
now i put the component fourier in my schematic ,and i get the thd in spectre.

but i also puzzle the component fourier2ch ,how to use it.
 

total harmonic distortion explained

I haven't tried out the component fourier2ch. There is more information in the cadence document. Try to use
spectre -h fourier
to get the detailed description.

There is also a very good reference in the website of Cadence. It may help you to understand more.
