Cannot access individual noise contributions using SpectreMDL

Carmi

I have tried replicating the setup described in a previous post (here), with the proposed solution.

 

The MDL measurements return a value of 0 for all exported result but the first.

Using Viva I can actually see the correct value for each contribution.

I am using :
- Spectre 23.1.0.538.isr10
- Viva IC23.1-64b.ISR8.40

What should I do differently?

Thanks!
