harmonic balance of oscilator spur injection

Two issues:

1. You cannot specify the number of tones for the second tone as "auto". It's only possible to auto-determine the number of tones for the first tone (the oscillator tone in this case) - you will have to determine an appropriate number yourself.
2. Because you now have two tones, the relative harmonic must be a vector, because the frequency sweep will be relative to harm1*HBfund1+harm2*HBfund2. Since you are not requiring that second tone to be there for the circuit to work, I would expect your relative harmonic to be "2 0", which would mean that you're observing the frequency at 20G+1k to 20G+10M (where the 20G is in practice 2 times whatever the oscillator frequency actually is).

Regards,

Andrew.

Hello Andrew, i have defined the simulation by your guidelines as shown bellow.unfortunetly the simulation didnt recognise the 18GHZ spur in the plot that came from the VSIN SOURCE described bellow.maybe we need to change the relative vector in hbnoise into "0 1" so it will sweep around 18G+1K and 18G+1M?

its only recognising the spur of the oscilator of 10GHz as shown in the plot bellow.

where did i go wrong recognising the external interfernce spur represented by VSIN?

i have add the full log in the end.

Thanks

First of all, could you please not keep posting entire log files pasted into the thread - this both increases the likelihood of it being recognised as spam (because of the repeated text) - requiring me to pull it out of moderation - but more importantly it makes it really hard to interact with the thread because it's really long. Better would be to attach the log file.

Having waded through the log file, your oscillator frequency is 11.1126GHz, and your interferer is at 18GHz. Given that you are simulating the noise from 1k to 10M offset you're not going to see any spurs within that band since any product of these two frequencies can't end up within that band. You plotted the hb results (it's rather confusing because you seem to include random plots and it's not always obvious what you're trying to do), but it may be that putting the sinusoidal source on the bias has very little effect on the differential output, and if you're plotting the hb results on a linear y axis it may make it very hard to see (perhaps if you plot on a log y, or plot in dB, you might see a contributor in the hb results at 18GHz).

Regards,

Andrew.

Hello Andrew, my goal is to show frequency pulling. i took a 3Ghz oscilator , simulated it with one tone 3GHZ HB and it worked fine, then i tried to pull the oscilator towards 3.33GHz with an interference of 6.66GHz VSIN connected to a NMOS as shown in the schematics bellow.

but when i added the interference  and tried to simulate  with two tone HB as  shown bellow , it didnt show any spurs at all or non significant  as shown at the plot in the end.

The full log of the simuation is uploaded as a text file named log.txt .

where did i go wrong simulating frequency pulling?
Thanks

Notice from spectre at time = 1.66667 ps during IC analysis, during periodic steady state analysis, during Harmonic Balance Steady State Analysis `hb'.
    Initial condition computed for node out_p is in error by 7.42834 mV (7.42834 %).
        Decrease `rforce' to reduce error in computed initial conditions.  However, setting rforce too small may result in convergence difficulties or in the matrix becoming singular.

DC simulation time: CPU = 2 ms, elapsed = 1.78194 ms.

Error found by spectre at time = 96.6667 ns during periodic steady state analysis, during Harmonic Balance Steady State Analysis `hb'.
    ERROR (SPCRTRF-15050): V(out_n,out_p) is too small to reliably detect the period of the oscillator.Perhaps  nodes with insignificant signal levels were chosen, or perhaps the oscillator was never properly started.
