Re: THD of a sine with a small dent at crossover
Hello Echidna, Crossover Distortion -------------------- I calculated the formula with Fourier series and approximation. sin(x) = x-1/3*x^3 1-x^2 = 1-2*x THD = 100%*2*pi*sqrt(1/3*(D/T)^3)

Re: THD
Yes, I found 25*(D/T)^2 by trial. Running simuations that give me THD, I see it fits perfectly with D/T from 0.02 to 0. Yes, I meant "unable". Now, I understand better. The 25*(D/T)^2 is quite normal.

Step a resistor over time
Hi All, is it possible to step a resistor over time? Right now if I use the step command like this: .step param R 100 1000 100 .tran 0 1ms 0 1 I end up with a bunch of parallel horizontal lines. What

Re: inverting opamp simulation: rapid component variation
Hello John, Actually, a DC input voltage is present. But, I don't know if it will be ground in AC analysis.If that's grounded then how could I have output (ignore offsets at this moment).

Re: inverting opamp simulation: rapid component variation
Thank you, Andy for your hints. But, in '.AC' we need to have an AC voltage or current source. Here, I don't have any such thing (as I wish to vary the frequency of R2, NOT that of any source), so how

Re: inverting opamp simulation: rapid component variation
The quickest way to get a frequency response is to use an .AC analysis, rather than .TRANsient. Then you can sweep and plot output amplitude versus frequency. The thing to always remember about .AC

Re: inverting opamp simulation: rapid component variation
Hi Maktoomi Helmut example is absolutely right. This is because a quick analysis of the circuit you have given shows the following:- Vo/Vin = R2(f)/R1 . It follows that Vo= [R2(f)/Rin]*Vin = Iin*R2(f)
