    Well, to write your own you'd end  up using the low level highlight functions ge.*Hilight.* (search in cdsFinder for Hilight), and OCEAN functions to find the DC operating point data. Don't have an example - maybe somebody else does.

    I just tried Circuit Conditions with Eldo, and it worked (the example I had didn't have any models which produced "region" so I had to use vdsat or similar). Alternatively you could use Eldo's SOA capabilities.

    It might be easier to contact Cadence or Mentor Customer Support to try to resolve why the circuit conditions is not working for you.

    Regards,

    Andrew.
