1. SpectreRF Overview
SpectreRF is an optional feature added to Spectre ,and is represented by 5 analyses:
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. PSS: Periodic Steady State Analysis PAC: Periodic AC Analysis PXF: Periodic Transfer Function Analysis PNOISE: Periodic Noise Analysis PDISTO: Periodic Distortion Analysis
PAC, PXF, and PNOISE are similar in concept to AC, XF, and Noise. However, they are applied to periodically-driven circuits such as mixers and oscillators.
