Cadence Analog Design Environment question

[peterVM]

/net is not a kept output

When I have done a DC analysis with a design variable sweep and try to plot a current using Direct plot -> Main Form and selects the drain terminal whos current I want plotted, it returns an error : "ERROR: /MN0 /D is not a kept output".

Does anyone know what I do wrong ? The analysis is succesfull and I can plot DC operating points and net voltages but not terminal currents ??

cadence+outputs+to be saved

Hi,

You have to save that current wave from in order to plot it. By default no current waveform is saved so you have to select: OUTPUTS->SAVE ALL-> and from this menu select one of the options: selected nonlinear or all. Or from the meenu OUTPUTS->TO BE SAVED and select on the scematic the current you want to plot.

Thanks a lot, that was exactly it. Now it works just fine
