Analysis
To start the analysis, select Sonnet - Analysis - Simulate from the layout menu.
When you select this command, the software checks the sync date between the ADS layout and the Sonnet project and the stored properties are compared against the actual values in the interface. If these are not in sync, a query window appears. Select yes if you wish to translate and continue with the simulation.
You may use the command Sonnet - Tools - Sync Dates to synchronize the ADS design and layout and the Sonnet project before you run a simulation. This ensures that the Sonnet project is correct before you run the analysis.
The ADS layout is translated to a Sonnet project and the Sonnet analysis is started. A status window appears which allows you to track the progress of the simulation. When the Sonnet analysis is invoked, the Sonnet Status dialog and progress bar window, shown below, appear on your display and shows the progress of the simulation. These windows provide you with information about the simulation as it progresses.
