take a fixed step time

kamel over 16 years ago

hi everybody

did anyone know how to make a fixed step time for a transient analysis.

thanks

Andrew Beckett over 16 years ago

Use the strobeperiod option on the tran analysis. Note that internally the simulator will still take whatever timesteps needed in order to accurately follow the circuit behaviour, and will also solve at the specified strobeperiod. It only outputs the timesteps at the strobeperiod.

This makes it a very effective way of generating good data for performing an FFT on afterwards; it's regularly spaced, without interpolation errors which you'd normally get by sampling the data.

Regards,

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

Where can I find the "strobeperiod" option in the ADE environment?

Hmm. Please read the Forum Guidelines which clearly ask you not to post on the end of old threads (this one is 10 years old!), and also not to post duplicate questions. You've done both...

However, since this is clarifying the answer above, I'll give a link to my response in the new thread you posted.
