===Setting Statistical Distribution and Tolerance of Device Parameters===
[[B2RF.Spice A/D]] offers two different ways of settings the statistical distribution and tolerance of various device [[parameters]]: (1) from the [[Schematic Editor]], and (2) from the Monte Carlo Settings Dialog. The main types of distributions are Gaussian (Normal) and Uniform. The Gaussian distribution is the bell-shaped distribution concentrated around a mean value and defined by a standard variation (sigma). The Uniform distribution gives any value in the specified range an equal probability. If you specify "Tolerance" as a percentage, then it will be interpreted as a percentage boundary on either side of the individual parameter's given value. The given value is assumed to be the statistical mean. When running a Monte Carlo simulation, at each simulation iteration, [[parameters]] are set to values that are different than their specified values according to their tolerances.
