14. The network analysis is carried out with the help of TINA s network analyzer The RF models of the circuit elements can be defined as SPICE subcircuits SPICE macros which contain parasitic components inductors capacitors or as an S parameter model defined by its S frequency function S functions are normally provided by the component manufacturers based on their measurements and can be downloaded from the Internet and inserted into TINA either manually or by using TINA library Manager Noise analysis determines the noise spectrum with respect to either the input or the output The noise power and the signal to noise ratio SNR can also be calculated Symbolic analysis produces the transfer function and the closed form expression of the response of analog linear networks in DC AC and transient modes The exact solution calculated through the symbolic analysis can also be plotted and compared to the numerically calculated ot measured results The built in interpreter can evaluate and plot arbitrary functions Monte Carlo and Worst case analysis Tolerances can be assigned to the circuit elements for use in Monte Carlo and or worst case analyses The results can be obtained statistically and their expected means standard deviations and yields can also be calculated Optimization TINA s enhanced optimization tool can tweak one or more unknown circuit parameters to achieve a predefined target response The target circuit

The output s chosen also determine which curve s will be displayed in the chosen analysis mode Sources and generators can be configured as inputs while meters can be configured as outputs However meters can also serve to determine the location of the input quantity that will be used when computing AC Transfer curves and functions For even greater flexibility inputs or outputs can be established at nearly any location by using the Insert Input and Insert Output commands Note that you can define the input parameter for parameter sweeping only through the Insert Input command To insert an input or output select the Input or Output command from the Insert menu and move the input I or output O symbol attached to the cursor over the first schematic node that it should define Click on that node release the mouse button and move the symbol to the second node and click on that node The program will draw a dashed rubber line between the two nodes while drawing and will also place this line on the schematic when you click on the second node Since an input reference can be established in so many ways it is important to remember that only one input at a time can be defined within a circuit Similarly in some of TINAS analysis methods e g Symbolic Analysis only one output can be defined within a circuit GALYVLS ONILLADS Editing an RLC Circuit Schematic GETTING STARTED 4 5 4 5 1 Exercises These exercises w
