V

VOLTAGE SOURCE
Function Voltage source with a dc or time dependent value.
Format Name:
Vxxxxxxx Name of the element, including the first character a maximum of 8 characters is allowed.
Value:
< DC value > < Transource >
DC value:
Dc value of the source. If omitted, the source has a value zero, or a time dependent behavior, if one of the Transources is specified.
Transource:
You can specify a time dependent transource. The time dependent sources are described on the following pages.Transource is chosen from: Pulse, Sinusoidal, Exponential, Piece-Wise-Linear or Single-Frequency fm

Each period PER the pulse is repeated. Intermediate points are determined by linear interpolation.
Example:
Value: pulse = -2 2 2ps 2ps 4ps 20ps 100ps
Value: pulse(-1,1,2,2,2)
Value: Pulse=(0,10,0,0,0,10n,40n)

Example:

Value: sin(0,1,4.77meg)


Piece-Wise Linear

(To be specified as Value for the voltage source or current source)
PWL(T1 V1 <T2 V2 T3 V3 T4 V4 .....>)
Parameters
Ti Time when the new value starts.
Vi Pulsed value.
Each pair of values (Ti, Vi) specifies that the value of the source is Vi (in volts or amps) at time t=Ti. The value of the source at intermediate values of time is determined by linear interpolation of the values.
Example:
Value: pwl 1 1 2 2 3 1 4 2 5 1 6 2
Value: pwl=1,0 2,2 3,2 4,0
Value: pwl(1.000034ns,2.234)

The shape of the waveform is described by the following equation:
value = VO + VA*sin((2PI*FC*time)+MDI*sin(2PI*FS*time))
Example:
Value: sffm 0 5 1meg
Value: sin -1 2 20khz 2seconds 5
Value: sin(0,1,4.77meg)
Special The current flows into the positive node1 through the source to node2. It is not allowed to make a parallel connection between voltage sources and/or capacitors.
