Re: fft and ltspice
Hello, A V-source can read its PWL-data from a file. Therefore place a V-source in the schematic. Then right-mouse-click on it and choose PWL-file. LTspice will interpolate between the data points, if the FFT has to calculate data points between the defined data points. If the simulation has finhshed, you can start the FFT. Right-mouse-click into the waveform window -> View -> FFT. Data format of the file: time value I guess space(s), comma and tab(s) are possible seperation characters. 2 0 2.1 -1 2.2 0.5 2.3 0 2.4 -0.3 2.5 0.0 2.6 -0.1 2.7 0 2.8 0 Best regards, Helmut |
Re: fft and ltspice
The very simplest way to get data from MATLAB into LTspice is to use .wav files.? MATLAB can read and write wave files and LTspice can read and write these files.? See examples: C:\Program Files\LTC\LTspiceXVII\examples\Educational\wavein.asc C:\Program Files\LTC\LTspiceXVII\examples\Educational.waveout.asc Note: You have to look at the folder where you installed LTspice which might not be same as me. Good luck, Dan |
fft and ltspice
ltspice group: hi? ?suppose i have a sine wave and i sampled this wave for example with Matlab software? so? i have samples of this wave and i save them for example in a text file. how can i do fft of these sample in ltspice( this work can be done easly in Matlab but i want do in ltspice) and how import the samples in ltspice? thanks |
Re: Single supply VCO
Nekvstr, The MODULATE FM input works just like a numerically controlled oscillator.? It increments the phase in an internal accumulator based on the instantaneous frequency at each time step. It then takes the sin(phase)*AM to produce the output.? This is not complicated nor mysterious. Here is a simple netlist that implements the FM modulation equation without need of the MODULATE function.It modulates a 100kHz carrier with +/-10kHz deviation using a 1kHz modulating signal * FM Simulation B1 0 FM I=sin(2*pi*FC*time + 2*pi*DEVIATION*idt(i(r2))) R1 FM 0 1 I1 0 modulation SINE(0 1 {MF} 5m) R2 modulation 0 1 .param FC=100K .param MF=1K .param DEVIATION=10K .tran 0 40mS 0 100n .backanno .end Note that LTspice needs a "hint" to slow down the simulation by restricting the maximum time step so as to not skip ahead too much.? Otherwise the integrator idt() misses too much information. ?? |
Re: Cannot download IR2117_test.zip because of certificate error
From here (eastern USA), the downloads work every time (assuming I'm starting from the webpage and that the webpage was recently refreshed.? But I have had those problems from time to time (not for the last few weeks).? Several successful downloads of that file, today. It appears that western USA is affected by this problem. The URL starting with "" came from the error message.? It wasn't where he started.? He started by clicking on the "Files" tab on the group's website. It's odd that the URL starting with "" was missing the VERY long stream of characters that they always have. My suggestion is to keep trying.? Usually when this happens to me, it's temporary, and intermittent.? So it might fail 75% of the time and work the other 25%.? But occasionally it fails on 100% of tries.? Make sure to periodically refresh the webpage where you click on the file. It MIGHT also depend on web browser (though I haven't seen any proof of this).? So, if you have another browser, try that too. Regards, Andy |
Re: Single supply VCO
That's pretty much true.? There are a handful of (former) Linear Technology and Analog Devices employees here, but you're right that most of them don't know LTspice internals or its code.? However, Mike is still "here", though he visits here rarely (and pretty much in "write-only mode") so he is never going to see a question here directed at him. Andy |
Re: LTSpice Model for Photo Triac - VOM160
Eric asked, "How do I now permanently save the part that has already MOC3083 on it instead of? LED_TRIAC_ZCS, ..." That's easy.? Edit the symbol and save it.? Open the symbol file in LTspice.? You can right-click on it when it's on your schematic, then click Open Symbol.? Then right-click on that text and change it.? It happens to be an Attribute of the symbol.? Then save the file.? If you want to, you could save it under a different filename, but then you'd probably want to edit your schematics too. ? ? "...?and what needs to be done?so I don't have to add the directive? ?.lib MOC308x.lib? everytime I use this part?" There are ways to put the library filename into the symbol itself, but to be honest I don't remember them.? I think there is more than one way, but they come with side-effects which is one reason why I tend to avoid it.? If you read through the LTspice Help (remember that?) it lists at least one of them.? I think one of the consequences is that you can no longer open or edit the symbol from a schematic page.? Which might not be an issue for you. Some of the symbol attributes work in unexpected ways.

Re: Cannot download IR2117_test.zip because of certificate error
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýHelmut, ? Yes I have, but the problem is not related to the temporary nature of the link. What was reported was the error message from the web browser. When you click on:- ? ? and then on ? IR2117_test.zip ? It ALWAYS redirects to one of those temporary links. If there is an error the reported failed URL will be the temporary link to which you have been re-directed. In this case it was a certificate error. If there is a certificate error then the failing URL will always be one of those links and that¡¯s what the browser will report. You will NEVER get an error that shows the original URL. Re-visiting the links as per above usually hides the problem, I believe because ¡°xa.ying.com¡± ?is actually a load balanced cluster. When you repeat the process you usually get a different server and it works. ? Dave ? From: LTspice@... <LTspice@...>

Re: Cannot download IR2117_test.zip because of certificate error
¿ªÔÆÌåÓýProbably not the only person. The error says your PC does not trust the certificates on xa.yimg.com. I have seen several reports of this here and on other groups. The info you have given is not enough to know if the error is with the server which has an invalid certificate, or with your PC which is missing a root certificate, or if you are in a commercial environment and there is a proxy that¡¯s messing things up ? E.g. ? https://superuser.com/questions/1083766/how-do-i-deal-with-neterr-cert-authority-invalid-in-chrome ? Hopefully clearing the browser cache and starting from the top of the files section will sort things out. If not make sure your browser is up to date. It looks like you are using CHROME and chrome needs to be up to date for its certificate checking to work reliably¡ Also note that xa.yming.com will actually be an array of load balanced servers so it could just be one has of the array has some issue. If so some times it will work and at other times it won¡¯t. ? .. hope this helps.. ? ? Dave G4UGM ? ? ? ? ? ?

That sounds a bit like paranoia... The URI you posted is incomplete, and in its entirety, is a transient URI valid for only a short time, and likely valid for only one user - this is a peculiarity of Yahoo! platform, and frequently causes consternation in this group. The real URI for the file you seek is: Clicking on this link will probably just take you to Files > Lib. Use Ctrl-F to find the file on that page, which is quite long. I just checked it and the file you seek is there and downloadable. Regards, Tony |

Re: LTSpice Model for Photo Triac - VOM160
Hi Andy, Sorry for the incomplete upload. Learning woes I guess. Actually the one modified from the original circuit ran. I think because I didn't delete any text that was on the original schematic. While the fresh? made one? wouldn't and has the error. So I got puzzled again what was going on. I actually did step 2 before but still it wouldn't run. I did not do step 3. So now I do both and wallah it runs! Please would like to request one more help. How do I now permanently save the part that has already MOC3083 on it instead of? LED_TRIAC_ZCS, and what needs to be done so I don't have to add the directive? ?.lib MOC308x.lib? everytime I use this part? Thanks and best regards, Eric

Re: LTSpice Model for Photo Triac - VOM160
Eric wrote: ? ? "I uploaded both circuits so you can maybe is it okay you can take a look." So I copied over the two files (LED_TRIAC_ZCS.asy and?MOC308x.lib) that I said you needed. When I run "Heater-circuit-MOC3083_modified.asc", it won't run because that schematic tries to load "st_standard_snubberless_triacs_LTspice.lib" which isn't there either.? I don't think it's needed in that schematic, is it?? So then I copied that file over too, anyway.? Now when I run it, it runs without any errors.? Is this the one you said had an "Unknown subcircuit" error? When I run "Heater-circuit-MOC3083-fresh drawn.asc" (after having added the symbol and library files), I get the error about "Unknown subcircuit".? The reason is because you forgot to do steps (2) and (3) that I described earlier.? The text immediately under the symbol needs to be changed to "MOC3083", and there must be the line to include the library file that has its subcircuit definition: ? ? .lib MOC308x.lib Fix those two, then it should work.
