Error During Using calcVal for Calibration and Performing Temperature Sweep

$

Hello,

I am using Virtuoso version IC6.1.7.

I would like to perform a very simple calibration (transient) simulation in ADE Assembler, where I run two simulations. Let's call them calibration and main_test. I have two variables. They are called myVar and temperature (is the temperature basically). In calibration, I measure one voltage output (scalar, let's call v1) at nominal conditions (process, temperature and voltage). In main_test, i provide v1 as a the value of myVar by using calcVal function as:

calcVal("v1" "calibration").

Additionally, I would like to perform main_test for two temperature values that are 25 and 30. For that, I check the box next to temperature under the design variables section of the main_test simulation and enter 25 30. The simulations works well for calibration. However, I get the following error in main_test:

ERROR (SFE-1996): "input.scs" 13: Parameter 'myVar': Cannot run the simulation becaise an unknown parameter 'nil' has been specified in expression 'nil'. Correct expression and rerun the simulation.

As an extra information, if I enter a single value for temperature, main_test runs without any problem. Only multiple entries result in failure.

Many thanks in advance for your support.

Best regards,

Can
