Over the past few IC6.1.7 and ICADV12.3 ISR releases, a lot of new and useful features have been added to Virtuoso ADE Explorer and Virtuoso ADE Assembler. An interesting one that recently caught my attention amidst this forever-increasing feature list is – Parametric Sets in Design Variables.
This feature could be a savior if you’re working on a gigantic list of design variables or parameters with sweeps, but don’t want to run all the possible sweep combinations for them. Parametric sets help save time and also provide you the flexibility to run a specific set of variables. To put it in simpler words – when you create a parametric set by combining two or more variables, only a selected set of sweep combinations are created by picking values from the same ordinal position for all the variables or parameters in the parametric set. This reduces the number of design points, thereby, reducing the number of simulations.(read more)![]()
