ADE XL just doesn't give me me curves!

Hi,

All I want is one single curve of I/Q image rejection of my I/Q downconversion mixer with some random mismatch ...

I have to use ADE XL for that (ADE doesn't work) and I am confident I am doing everything right: I enabled the Monte Carlo corner, have an output "IRR4" at 100 kHz and "IRR4_f" which would give me a curve vs frequency in a normal ADE simulation. I hit Run -> Monte Carlo Sampling and make sure I have selected [x] Save data to allow family plots.

At the end of the run I can plot histograms etc with "IRR4" but the data for "IRR4_f" does nowhere seem to be accessible. The results just show "IRR4".

Where are the curves over frequency?

Ideally I would do 100 monte carlo sims and get 100 IRR-vs-frequency curves on top of each other.

I attach screenshots.

Thank you!

    Hi kTC4,

    the "Yield" view gives you information about the scalar measurements, you wont see waves there. Switch to "Detail" or "Summary" and there you might find what you look for.

    Does it produce a wave in Single Simulation Mode?

    Kind regards,

    Marc

    That worked indeed. I could swear I went through all possible options. Thank you!
