Monte Carlo Analysis
Specifying a Monte Carlo Analysis
increasing the number of runs is that Eldo then performs unnecessarily long Monte Carlo
analysis for the larger values of PVG.
To ensure consistent quality of the statistical results across the full range of circuit parameters
and configurations, it is recommended to specify a large number of maximum runs and use a
convergence condition to automatically stop each Monte Carlo analysis. Refer to “Run-Length
Control” on page 514 for more information.

To specify a Monte Carlo analysis, include a .MC statement in your netlist. Optional parameters
for run-length (or convergence) control, the control of graphical output in EZwave, and the
sampling algorithm can be specified. The nrun_max argument is mandatory:
.MC NRUN_MAX [OV] [RUN CONTROL PARAMETERS] [OUTPUT CONTROL PARAMETERS]
[SAMPLING METHOD PARAMETERS]
Run Control Parameters
NRUN_MAX IRUN OUTER AUTOSTOP SAVE
