DC bias operating point, IC6.14, MMSIM10

Kabal

 Im trying to figure out how can i obtain DC biased operating point when doing different type of simulation in MMSIM10, under IC6.14?

 

Lets say i have some complicated circuit, and i put specific nodes for plotting (either in ac,dc,tran...and so on).

 But at the same time, i want to have a quick access to a list of table or something, which would tell me DC operating point at each node, as well as all transistor important voltages and currents, like Vgs,Vds...IDs and so on.

 (i always used to do that in free Spice software LTSpice, but i really want to know how could i do something like that in cadence?)

     When you do this, it should have opened the schematic in a tab, as well as opening the "Results Display Window". Initially the Results Display Window will be blank, but the schematic window should be prompting you to click on nodes (if it's for DC Node Voltages) or click on devices (if it's for DC Operating Point). Your window manager may be misconfigured and that may be what is preventing the window from appearing at the front (sometimes this is due to "focus stealing prevention behavior" in the window manager settings).

    So was there a prompt (such as "Select instances for the OP output...") in the bar at the bottom of the schematic window?

    Regards,

    Andrew.
