Tutorial Overview
The following tutorial takes you through the steps needed to
setup and run an optimization starting with the simple
terminator example provided with your MicroSim programs.
In this tutorial, you will:
• Verify the schematic setup:
• Check that component values are parameterized.
• Check that optimization parameters are defined.
• Check the analysis settings.
• Check the goal specification settings.
• Run the optimization.
For a complete hands-on tutorial
in which you draw the schematic
and set up the optimization from
scratch, see
