LMX2492 FOM using PLLatinum Sim software

Thomas Heidemann
Prodigy 40 points
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LMX2492, LMX2571

It looks like the FOM for the LMX2492 device is incorrect when selecting it (-215.8dBc/Hz instead of -227dBc/Hz). How can I correct this? There is an option to import a "noise file" in text format, but I am unsure of the format.

    Thomas,

    I found this error and fixed it.

    I am releasing a newer version of the PLLatinum Sim this week with this fix and several other upgrades.

    One of the upgrades is related to the inport/export feature, as the current version is not consistent if the offset is in Hz or kHz.  New version is consistent.

    The format is:

    offset, noise

    you can separte with comma or tab and then put a new line after it.  To do this, just do it in excel and save as tab-delimited text.

    Regards,

    Dean

    Thanks Dean. I see the current version for download is still 1.1, released on 18 April 2016. Any idea when the newer version will be available?

    Too bad we can't load oscillator phase noise into this tool. I didn't get very far in the design process before it crashed.

    Version 2 should be out on the web. I think that the file might say 1.1, but I think it's really 1.2 once you install.

    Hi,

    I am also trying to load a VCO noise file. I have version 1.2. I have followed the format but I get error "Argument 'Length' must be greater or equal to zero" (details below). I am trying to use LMX2571 with external VCO. Could somebody provide an example file that works??

    Thanks, Nigel.
