Hi Saloni, thank you for your reply. Implementing the functionality in the verilogA model using the value of the parameter and if/else is clear. My question is how to pass the value from the...

I just tried this on a small testcase and here's what I had to do. When you run netlisting from ADE, do you get a design variable called 'corner' added to the state? You can give the default value to...

Ok, I'll try using the results display, but it will likely be later in the week before I can get to it. I do need the table to have one x-vector column that is common to all the y-vector columns in the...
