An approach is proposed in the paper to automated statistical circuit optimization using the general-purpose circuit analysis program Cadence PSpice. The selection of the optimal variant is based on postprocessing in the graphical amalyzer Probe. The objective functions are formulated and calculated using corresponding macrodefinitions.They are defined as corresponding modules for optimization, introduced in Probe. The optimal values of the circuit parameters are also obtained in the graphical analyzer Probe using predefined macros using simulation results in the frequency or in the time domain. The statistical PSpice optimization allows the application of the rich possibilities of Probe graphical analyzer for construction complex objective functions, multi-extremal, as well as non-differetiable functions. Examples are presented to illustrate the proposed approach.
