LISO output file parsing¶
Known incompatibilities¶
Duplicate component and node names¶
In LISO, nodes and components may share the same name, and the user is warned that this may lead to confusion. In Zero, nodes and components cannot share the same name.
Output coordinates¶
The parser assumes all outputs are in db and degrees (noise columns are handled appropriately, however). This leads to incorrect results. This is easily fixed but not yet implemented.
Differences in behaviour¶
Input noise sinks¶
In LISO, input noise is always specified at the input node, and not the input component, even if
the circuit input is a current (i.e. iinput
). This makes no difference to the computed spectra,
but it does influence the labels used to plot the data. In Zero simulations, and in parsed LISO
output files, the input noise sink is always set to whatever the circuit input actually is - either
the input node in the case of uinput
or the input component in the case of iinput
.
