Cascade is a program for analyzing the noise and distortion performance
|
|
of a cascade of elements in an electronic system. A typical application
|
|
of cascade is the analysis of a receiver. A text description of the
|
|
receiver block diagram consisting of things like amplifiers, mixers,
|
|
and filters is entered into cascade. Each element is characterized
|
|
by its gain and optionally noise figure, and third order intercept
|
|
point. The program then analyzes the system and produces a report
|
|
detailing the performance at each stage.
|
|
|
|
A summary is produced which shows the relative contributions to the
|
|
total system performance of each block. This allows easy identification
|
|
of what limits system performance.
