Fenny,

Make sure that the data is in a time/value pair as shown below, where the time is the first column and the voltage/current data is the second column:

Save the data into a file and start TINA-TI. Place a voltage/current generator:

Double left click on the source and click on the signal line. Click on the ellipsis:

Select the general waveform:

Right click in the entry space and select Open... A Navigation window will appear and you can select the file and load it into the field. After loading, click Test to see the waveform displayed in the window:

Now you can close the source and run the data in it. If you want to make the signal periodic with the period you stored in the file, simply add REPEAT FOREVER to the top of the data and ENDREPEAT to the end of the data. This will give you a periodic signal of the data provided.

The key is to get the data into a time/value pair. If you have multiple channels of data, you can create multiple sources to represent each individual channel. However, you must format the data correctly with the proper time and values you are wanting to simulate.
