    Hi Preeti

    You can save DC operating points as follows:
    a. In the ADE-L window, go to "Analyses"
    b. Select "DC"
    c. In the form, there is a button that says "Save DC operating points"
    d. Enable the button

    By the way, it is actually not quite useful to simply know that you are using IC613. This is because there are now 18 sub-versions for IC613 and so if this is a bug case, we would not be able to know if the bug has already been fixed in the version which you are using. E.g. you might be using IC613.502 and the bug might have been fixed in IC613.518. So it would be great if in future, you can provide the output of the following cmd:

    terminal>virtuoso -W

    Best regards
