PSpice User Guide Monte Carlo and sensitivity (worst-case) analyses October 2019 560 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. Reusing parameter values To reuse model parameter values from a previous Monte Carlo analysis: 1. Select PSpice – Edit Simulation Profile. The Simulation Settings dialog box appears. 2. In the Analysis tab, select the Analysis Type as Time Domain(Transient), DC Sweep or AC Sweep/Noise, or Bias Point. 3. In the Options list, select Monte Carlo/Worst Case 4. Select the MC Load/Save button. 5. In the Load/Save Monte Carlo Parameter File dialog box, select the Load Parameter values in filename: check box. 6. In the text box that is enabled, specify the name and the location of the .mcp file from which the parameter data is to be read. 7. Click OK to save your settings. Now when you run the Monte Carlo analysis, the simulator will reuse all the model parameter values stored in the .mcp files. Any new or additional parameter values will be varied separately with in the tolerance range. While reusing values from a .mcp file, you must take care of the points listed below. 1. When you use the Monte Carlo history support feature, the values stored in a .mcp file for model parameters are different from the values stored for components, such as resistor, capacitor, and inductor. In case of model parameters, actual parameter values used for simulation are stored. Whereas in case of the components, instead of the actual value, the multiplication factor used for generating the random values are stored.
