Marq - OK, I see your point about the table. As for the initial state of a flipflop, I believe the "ic" argument is necessary for this. You really want the time=0 solution of the circuit to have the initialization. If you use "nodeset" then the circuit may converge (after the nodesets are no longer enforced) to some other solution. Compare the .nodeset and .ic statements in Spice3. -Geoffrey Marq Kole wrote: > > Geoffrey, > > The table suggests that the analysis("nodeset") return value is always true for DC, where in fact it is not.

The table says you cannot make this distinction by using analysis("nodeset"), but I think this is the purpose of this particular piece of Verilog-A. > > MarqReceived on Fri Aug 25 06:11:11 2006
