Virtuoso Analog Simulation: T3 Monte Carlo Simulations Using ADEXL

Learning Objectives

After completing this course, you will be able to:

• Apply various sampling methods and run Monte Carlo simulations

Software Used in This Course

• Virtuoso Schematic Editor
• Virtuoso Analog Design Environment XL
• Spectre^® Classic Simulator

Software Release(s)

IC 6.1.7 ISR12, SPECTRE 16.1

Modules in This Course

• Monte Carlo Analysis
• Overview of Cadence^® Software

Audience

• Analog IC Design Engineers
• Custom Circuit Designers

Prerequisites

You should have experience with the related software or complete the following courses:

• Virtuoso Schematic Editor
• Virtuoso Analog Design Environment

If you have not taken these courses, then you need the equivalent experience in design entry with Virtuoso Schematic Editor L and XL and basic simulation with ADE L. This also implies that you have experience in analyzing simulation waveforms using a waveform viewer/editor. You can also meet this requirement by having taken the ADE IC 5.1.41 course or by having substantial experience using ADE IC 5.1.41 in running simulations.
