AC Sweep

The AC Sweep dialog allows you to set the conditions for AC analysis. The conditions set in this dialog are output as the .AC statements of the simulator. To make this dialog available, select AC Sweep in the Analysis Conditions dialog. Launch it by double-clicking an item in the AC Sweep folder in the SPICE Controller Manager, Analysis Tree, or by right-clicking it and selecting Open.

 

 

Item		Description
Linear		Analysis is performed from a sweep start value through a sweep end value by splitting using the specified step value.
	Start frequency	Input a sweep start frequency, without units. The following prefixes can be used.
	Stop frequency	Input a sweep end frequency, without units. The following prefixes can be used.
	Step	Input the sweep variation.
Decade		Analysis is performed from a sweep start value by splitting using the specified number of points on a decade basis.
	Start frequency	Input a sweep start frequency.
	Stop frequency	Input a sweep end frequency.
	Points per decade	Input the number of points for the decade.
Octave		Analysis is performed from a sweep start value by splitting using the specified number of points on an octave basis.
	Start frequency	Input a sweep start frequency.
	Stop frequency	Input a sweep end frequency.
	Points per octave	Input the number of points for the octave.
List		Specify the required frequency values as a list, with a separate value on each row. The list of values do not have to form a regular pattern. There is no limit to the number of values that you can specify.
OK		Saves the specified settings to the  to the SPICE Controller Manager, and closes the dialog.
Cancel		Closes the dialog without saving any unsaved changes.
Apply		Saves the specified settings to the SPICE Controller Manager. The dialog remains open.
