Transform Data

Different information is saved as transform data, depending on the optimization mode that is selected. This data is accessible to other IC-CAP objects, such as plots or PEL programs. The behaviors of the different modes are listed in the following table.

The RMS and maximum errors are normalized to 1 (1% = 0.01). If an invalid optimization setup is defined, no transform data is generated. If an error occurs during the optimization, the error data is set to 1.0.
