Description
This is an Engineer Explorer class that is designed around more advanced topics and exploration of the tool. This training material is intended to introduce users to the Advanced Analysis features of Allegro AMS Simulator.

The AMS Simulator Advanced Analysis class is a three-day course that focuses on library and design analysis-related issues of concern to the advanced user.

This course does teach some basic tool operations. It is suggested that students who are not actively using this tool first complete the Allegro AMS Simulator course.

In this course you will learn to:

* Use Advanced Analysis part libraries and their associated model libraries.
* Configure and run Sensitivity, Monte Carlo, Optimizer, and Smoke (Stress) analyses.
* Use local and global tolerances.
* Use Measurements to evaluate the circuit`s response.
* Analyze a circuit for Sensitivity/Worst Case analysis.
* Run Monte Carlo analysis using standard distributions.
* Run optimization to meet performance goals.
* Run Stress analysis using Smoke.
