Hi,

Am I applying this .meas directive correctly?  I'm trying to get the phase angle between the two sine waves.  On the scope, I measured this at about 80 degrees but am getting 63 degrees from .meas.

Thanks,
Carl



Ian.M:
Attach your sim as a .asc file so others can check it easily.

Here's my .asc

Also, with regards to the scope picture...the yellow sine wave is a direct connection from the function generator. I'm using a BNC splitter.  The other half of the splitter goes to the circuit.  The blue sine wave is at the junction of the R and the E.
Ian.M:
Why did you strip the .measure commands?

--- Code: ---.meas TRAN TIME_1 TRIG V(Vin)=0 RISE=2 TARG V(Vin)=0 RISE=3
.meas TRAN TIME_2 TRIG V(Vin)=0 RISE=2 TARG V(Vout)=0 RISE=2
.meas phase param 360*(TIME_2/TIME_1)

--- End code ---

With the .tran 0 1m .5m command from the sim you attached, I am also getting about 80 deg, confirmed by cursor measurements.   With your original .tran 50m I'm getting the same bogus 63 deg you got.

I suspect the cause is too many cycles and not enough data points due to your initially ill-chosen simulation duration.
