Model of the Month
Modeling digital-to-analog converters (DAC)
This application note shows how to model a few basic types of DAC circuits and characterize their INL, DNL, SINAD, ENOB, etc.

This primitive samples the value of an xreal-typed signal at specified triggering events and record the results to a text file for further post-processing.
Here is an example of recording the signal values to a text file using the 'probe_value'
primitives.
This release introduces new primitives such as 'vlimit'
, 'ilimit'
, and 'probe_value'
and new measurement scripts that simulate the BER bathtub curves, jitter transfer (JTRAN), and jitter tolerance (JTOL) of a high-speed receiver.
