3.6 Refine RC Filter Values Via Simulation (Part 1)

Now that the circuit is setup for simulation, the first step is to run a basic transient analysis to ensure everything is functioning and to check the initial settling. The transient analysis can be run via the TINA-TI menu options: Analysis → Transient...

The settling should be captured after allowing the circuit to stabilize for a couple sampling cycles, so a time period of 2.5 μs to 5.5 μs is selected as shown in Figure 3-5. This allows capture of the full 3rd and 4th sampling cycles (each cycle is 1us since the trigger frequency is 1 MHz).

Figure 3-6 shows the output waveforms from the transient simulation after separating the outputs (View → Separate outputs). The error voltage scale has also been adjusted to show a range of +10 mV to -10 mV (double-click on Verror, then enter -10m in the "Lower limit" field and 10m in the "Upper limit" field, then click "OK").

From this output, it is clear that:

  • Discharge and acquisition times are functioning as expected
  • The transients on Voa and Vpin are of reasonable magnitude (less than 100 mV, so the signal settling will be considered a small signal event)
  • Verror is settling to about 14 µV, which is well within the error target of 366 µV
