Hi Everyone,

What ways are there to control the initial transient in spectre based on some conditions? I very often face the problem, that the startup or initial transient of a circuit is long and is a strong function of PVT corners or testbench variables, making a sweep across corners and variables extremely time consuming if I have to adjust for the worst case corner. I've used a veriloga block recently, which among other functions also had a similar role and I am wondering whether there are any other ways to address this issue.

In the presence of a large input signal, the DC and the average steady state voltage will differ due to the non-linear device characteristics.
