Monte Carlo simulation

whlinfei
whlinfei over 16 years ago

Dear All,

 I have the schematic of a current matching circuit. I want to test how well the matching is using Monte Carlo simulation?

However I couldn't find it in Spectra analysis panel.

Can anyone help me with it? Or provide any other solution to find out how the matching will be in the layout simulation or in the real fabrication?

thanks  a lot.  I use IBM 130nm process.

 Best Regards,

Linfei

    In IC5141, you need to do Tools->Monte Carlo from the ADE window. You can then (on this form) specify the Analysis Variation as Process Only, Mismatch Only or Process & Mismatch.

    In IC612/IC613 you need to start ADE XL. Within ADE XL, you set the Run Mode to "Monte Carlo Sampling" and in the Run Options you can select Process, Mismatch or All.

    You should be able to read up on this in the documentation (cdsdoc in IC5141, cdnshelp in IC61).

    Best Regards,

    Andrew.
