Running Parametric Analyses<br />

Assigning Parameter Values<br />

Assigning Parameter Values<br />

Use the .PARAM command to assign values to parameter variables used in model and device<br />

instantiation statements.<br />

The following types of parameter statements are supported:<br />

• Simple description<br />

• Algebraic description<br />

• Character string assignment<br />

• User-defined function<br />

• Monte Carlo analysis<br />

Parameter Scoping Rules<br />

Option PARHIER controls the priorities for parameters. When PARHIER is GLOBAL or<br />

LOCAL, then the parameter priorities adopted in subcircuit instances (X statements) are<br />

performed as if the operations were executed inside the subcircuit. The following rules apply:<br />

When PARHIER=GLOBAL, the priority is the following:<br />

1. .PARAM statement at a higher level<br />

2. Subcircuit instantiation (X instance)<br />

3. .SUBCKT definition<br />

When PARHIER=LOCAL, the priority is:<br />
