Study 2
Now add an additional study to plot the source current as a function of drain voltage at a range of different gate voltages.

Click Add
. Select Vg from the Parameter name list.
Now set up the study to sweep over Vg.

Click Add
. In this case the default Auxiliary Parameter Vd is the desired parameter for the sweep.
9
In the table cell for the parameter value list for Vd, enter
range(0,0.25,1.5) 2 3 4 5
.
The
inner
sweep over Vd, the last parameter, should be used for the continuation solver (this is the default), since the solution will only change slightly between close values of Vd.
Configure the solver to reuse the solution from the previous step of the continuation parameter sweep as the initial value for the next step for the
outer
sweep parameter Vg, using the first value of the
inner
parameter Vd

From the “Reuse solution for previous step” list, choose Auto.
