How can I do a 10 khz square wave with LtSpice ?

[tessier]

Hi

How can I generate a 10 khz square wave with LtSpice ? (50 % duty cycle)

And how for a 31 khz square wave ?

Thanx

Paul

Use a pulsed voltage source with the correct times. Note that Trise and Tfall should not be 0.

Hi

I don't know how to set the LtSpice pulsed voltage source for those frequency square waves.

Thanx

Add a voltage source to your circuit. Right click on it. A window like below should pop up. The values below gives a 10kHz square wave. Adjust for 31kHz.

Hi

Is it the Tperiod or the Ncycles that I have to adjust to get 31 khz ?

Thanx

You can leave Ncycles alone since thats only how many cycles it'll give before it stops, leaving it blank will make a continous pulse train.

On Nperiod you put in the equivalent time for 31 kHz and Ton will be half of that value to define 50% duty cycle.

Rise and fall can be set to 1µ.

Tperiod would be 1/31000.
Ton will be half that

You may do:
Ton = {0.5/<value in Hz>}
and
Tperiod = {1/<value in Hz>}

I would also use rise/fall times of 0.01u as this will give you a "perfect" square wave with no percievable rise/fall time.

Hi

So, to get 31 khz, I set Tperiod to 31u and Ton 15u ?

Thanx

for symmetry you need to set Ton = (1/2)*(1/f) - t_rise

use curly brackets, .param to save typing
