How to Show MOS Transistors' Regions of Operation

ICChi
ICChi over 9 years ago

I'm using ADE L in IC6. 1. 5. 500.17 to run a DC simulation and would like to know which regions the MOS transistors in my circuit operate in such as cut off, linear (triode), and saturation regions. In the schematic, when I choose View, DC Annotation is not shown as some users described online. Instead, Results Annotation Setup can be chosen.  When Results Annotation Setup is chosen, a window with the title Edit Component Display Options pops up as shown below.   If this can lead to the annotation, display or indication of the operating regions of the MOS transistors in my schematic, could you please tell me how to edit the component display options?

I also tried using Device Checking under Simulation in Analog Design Environment to try to see the MOS transistors' regions of operation. Attached is my setup. However, after I press OK, no results are shown.  Did I miss something? 

 

Please help! Thank you so much for your kindness and help in advance!!
