A Unified SPICE Compatible Model for Large and Small Signal Envelope Simulation of Linear Circuits Excited by Modulated Signals
نویسندگان
چکیده
The envelope simulation method, developed earlier for large signal simulation (time domain, TRAN), is extended to include small signal envelope simulation (AC) and DC Sweep simulation (steady state for a range of carrier frequencies). The model is derived for AM, FM and PM modulation schemes and is demonstrated on a piezoelectric transformer circuit. The analytical derivations of the model were verified against full circuit simulations that include the high frequency carrier. Excellent agreement was found between the simulation results according to the new unified envelope model and the full simulation.

An SPICE compatible model for multiple coupled nonuniform lossless transmission lines (TL's) is presented. The method of the modeling is based on the steplines approximation of the nonuniform TLs and quasi-TEM assumptions. Using steplines approximation the system of coupled nonuniform TLs is subdivided into arbitrary large number of coupled uniform lines (steplines) with different characteristi...

The mixed-signal circuits with both analog and digital blocks on a single chip have wide applications in communication and RF circuits. Integrating these two blocks can cause serious problems especially in applications requiring fast digital circuits and high performance analog blocks. Fast switching in digital blocks generates a noise which can be introduced to analog circuits by the common su...
