Sensitivity Analysis
View Video
It is used to calculate the component that is most sensitive to an output
reference point.. We will study the performance of the circuit AMPLIF.EPB.
1. Right click and select the Sensitivity Voltage option tool from the
function tool Reference Points. Define the reference point by clicking on
the wire connected to the transistor Collector pin.
2. Click Analysis in the main menu. A window Setup Simulation Parameters opens
with the option Analysis being highlighted on the left side of the window by
default. Set the parameters by selecting GENERAL SETTINGS from the tree view on
the left side of the window. Now, select the Sensitivity Analysis option.
3.Specify a 5% of tolerance for which the analysis is to be carried out.This is the common tolerance value for all parameters of all components.
4. Click ACCEPT button to automatically switch to Analysis option. Check
Sensitivity Analysis check box. Now click START button for analysis to take place.
5. The results are displayed in a text file. The most sensitive component and its parameter is listed as the last line of the text file.
