monte Carlo simulations for an analog circuit

Dear randhiru,

I have been trying to run a monte carlo simulation for an analog circuit which I have performed the transient analysis and could not get the output on the histogram. I read some posts in the cadence website and tried both ADE XL and assembler. I get the same results on both but only the statistical parameter. Even though I have saved the output I need to plot it gives the error that it is not saved. I have included a picture here, I need to get my intended output under the outputs here.

I must apologize, but after reading your Forum post a few times, I really don't have enough information about your Monte-Carlo setup, the outputs you are trying to display, and your methodology to provide any concrete suggestions. I can only propose you consider following the instructions provided in the tutorial at the Cadence site URL:

My guess is that you haven't defined any outputs that produce scalar results. You can't just add signals to the output in ADE - you need outputs which produce a single number for each Monte Carlo point - so they must be expr type outputs rather than signal . What outputs do you have defined? In case it matters, which version are you using (help->About in any window should tell you the subversion being used).
