pfc()
This measurement gives the RMS power value of one frequency component of a harmonic balance waveform
Syntax
y = pfc(vPlus, vMinus, iOut, harm_freq_index)
Arguments
| Name | Description | Range | Type | Required |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| vPlus | voltage at the positive output terminal | (-∞, ∞) | real, complex | yes |
| vMinus | voltage at the negative output terminal | (-∞, ∞) | real, complex | yes |
| iOut | current through a branch | (-∞, ∞) | real, complex | yes |
| harm_freq_index | harmonic index of the desired frequency † | (-∞, ∞) | integer array | yes |
| Mix | consists of all possible vectors of harmonic frequency (mixing terms) in the analysis † † | (-∞, ∞) | matrix | no |
| † Note that the harm_freq_index argument's entry should reflect the number of tones in the harmonic balance controller. For example, if one tone is used in the controller, there should be one number inside the braces; two tones would require two numbers separated by a comma. † † Mix is required whenever the first argument is a spectrum obtained from an expression that operates on the voltage and/or current spectrums | ||||
Examples
The following example is for two tones in the Harmonic Balance controller:
y = pfc(vOut, 0, I_Probe1.i, {1, 0})

Notes/Equations
This function should not be used for DC measurements. If used, the results will be less by a factor of 2.0.
