Use an external signal in time domain into the frequency domain

Hi, I want to use an external wave (in file .txt) in frequency domain electric circuit. Using time domain I have no problems and I have used this waveform in DC generator, but the problem is to use this waveform in frequency domain. I have realized the waveform using root.t so in frequency domain the software doesn't know the variable t. Is there anyone with the same problem? Thanks to all

Antonio,

there is indeed no time in frequency domain so you cannot use a waveform to excite the model. The frequency domain solver only solves for pure harmonic excitations which are defined by a frequency and a complex amplitude. If your waveform is harmonic then just apply its frequency and amplitude, if it is something different you will need to use time domain.

Cheers Edgar

Thanks for the reply, I asked to make sure it couldn't be done. I have another question, with the previous txt file I made the waveform and I made it periodic in the analytic node, after I added it as a local variable. The moment I place it in a DC generator of the circuit I get a completely different waveform in the generator, I have attached the two waves. What are the steps to follow to avoid this problem? I want to realize the second image but I get the first one.

I think I found the problem, the step time used in transient solution was too big, so I was missing many frequency components during the study
