Transient Analysis
Abstract
Transient analysis calculates a circuit's response over a period of time defined by the user. The accuracy of the transient analysis is dependent on the size of internal time steps, which together make up the complete simulation time known as the Run to time or Stop time. For every time step, the node voltages and currents are calculated and compared to the previous time step DC solution. Only when the difference between two DC solutions falls within a specified tolerance (accuracy) will the analysis move on to the next internal time step. The time step is dynamically adjusted until a solution within tolerance is found. The value for the maximum internal time step can be defined by the user. There are ...
