Hi,
I am simulating a 32.768 kHz Pierce oscillator for phase noise. I have attached the details of my PSS+PNOISE setups in screenshots. Post completion of the analysis, I am unable to get the Direct PLot Main Form to plit the phase noise and get the message in the subject.
One more query query that I would like to be addressed is which of the two analysis, PSS or HB is suited to my design. Now I know that HB gives good results for linear and weakly non-linear oscillators (LC, Colpitts, pierce, etc) and PSS (shooting) for strongly non-linear like ring. The thing is although my osc is a Pierce Oscillator which generates sinusoidal or nearly sinusoidal outputs , I am driving a comparator with these sinusoidal outputs to get a square wave output. Does this imply that I need to use PSS (shooting) if want to see the phase noise/jitter at comparator output and HB if looking for phase noise at osc outputs (with sinusoidal waveforms).
By the way, what is the penalty to be paid if PSS shooting is used for linear and weakly non-linear oscillators?
Thanks,
Sharjeel
