Reuse DC solution from a specific corner in one test in the same corner of a different test

Analog Pete

There are two independent loops in my circuit that I want to run stability analysis for.  Since a Maestro Test can have only one analysis of a given type, I have two Tests.  The only difference between the two tests is the terminal I specify for "Probe Terminal" in the stb analysis configuration.  I am running over corners and the DC solution can take a while to converge.

Is it possible to use the DC solution from my Loop1 Test in my Loop2 test?  Somehow I have to match the DC solution between the two Tests corner-to-corner.  I don't know how to do that.

    Use of prevoppoint will not work across corners or different tests. It's solely useful for a second analysis within the same invocation of Spectre.

    The approach I suggested in the post you linked to will do what you want.
