Monte Carlo - Virtuoso IC 6.1.5

Hi,

In monte carlo analysis, what is the need for the "monte carlo seeds" field.

Is there any result variation for the different number of seeds..

Thanks.

    Sorry, I took from your time a lot.

    I am using 180nm, here what I find in the statistics part:

    statistics {
        process {
            vary par1_rf dist=gauss std=1/3
            vary par2_rf dist=gauss std=1/3
            vary par3_rf dist=gauss std=1/3
            vary par4_rf dist=gauss std=1/3
            vary par5_rf dist=gauss std=1/3
            }
        mismatch {
            vary vthnmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary dlnmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary dwnmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary toxnmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary vthpmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary dlpmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary dwpmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            vary toxpmis_rf dist=gauss std=1/1
            }
    
        }
     
    include "rf018.scs" section= mos
    endsection mc

    What do you think? Does it make sense?

    Thanks again and I appreciate your help.
