Monte Carlo analysis is essentially a statistical analysis that calculates the response of a circuit when device model parameters are randomly varied between specified tolerance limits according to a specified statistical distribution. For example, all the circuits encountered so far have been simulated using fixed component values. However, discrete real components such as resistors, inductors and capacitors all have a specified tolerance, ...
