008_Noisey_Vsource : Noise Source
Minimum Versions: SmartSpice 4.6.5.R
The first input deck shows how a nominal 10 volt supply can be specified with a noisey characteristic to see how the rest of the circuit responds in the presence of this power supply noise.
The waveform shows both the voltage noise and the current noise on the supply line.
The second inputdeck shows how a seperate noise generating source can be specified and used.
The waveform shows the noisey voltage source that can be used to inject noise into a circuit and test for sensitivity or inject noise to look at substrate coupling.
