Hi All, In the buffer circuit, I want to analyse the phase noise due to device noise. There are two methods of doing it as discussed. 1) Noisetype as sources: In this case, the signal “out” is clipped using an ideal VCVS to remove AM noise. In pnoise, noisetype as sources is run on “out_clip”. 2) Noisetype as pmjitter: One can also run a pmjitter on “out” signal and convert the voltage noise to an equivalent dBc/Hz number using the following equation. dBc=20 log_10(((v_n √2)/slew_rate)*pi*f_o )
Here is the question. The sources dBc/Hz numbers are smaller compared to pmjitter numbers. Why?
On spectrum analyser what dBc/Hz numbers will be more realistic?
For driven circuits, how does one simulate realistic phase noise in dBc/Hz?
Thanks
