The following procedure describes the minimum set of things
that you need to do to run a noise analysis. For more detail on
any step, go to the page referenced in the sidebar next to the step.
To set up and run an AC sweep
1
Place and connect a voltage or current source with an AC
input signal.
2
Set up the AC sweep simulation specification.
3
Set up the noise simulation specification and enable the
analysis by doing one of the following.
• If you have not yet specified the simulation parameters,
complete the noise analysis parameters in the AC
Sweep and Noise Analysis dialog box.
• If you disabled the AC sweep analysis after having set
up the AC and noise simulation parameters, then in the
Analysis Setup dialog box, select (
✓) the AC Sweep
check box to enable it.
4
Start the simulation.
