Actually you can plot algebraic expressions. Here's an example from my
experiments with checking phase margin of op-amp circuits etc:
.ac dec 20 10 10Meg
.control
set controlswait
* calculate loop gain, noise gain, open loop gain
let AB=V("/m2")/V("/m1")
let B1=V(out)/V("/m2")
let Aol=V(out)/V("/m1")
* print out cross-over frequency and phase margin
let dbAB=db(AB)
let phAB=180/pi*ph(AB)
display
meas ac unitf when dbAB=0
meas ac phm find phAB at=unitf
.endc
Some things to note here are that local labels in eeschema will have
"/" in their names and thus must be quoted, also the new signals AB,
B1 and Aol won't show up in the signal list, but you can still add
them manually by entering their name in the textbox below the list!
(Actually I added that textbox specifically for this purpose, but it
also works for quickly adding a signal with known name instead of
having to scroll around in the list)
Cheers
