Hi Stephen
thank you for trying it at your end, but the put what I am looking is not
correct. I hope you should be seeing a output like one what I have attached.
But it should be like the one shown in the next picture. The red colored
line is the one measured with this touchstone, but in a different tool.
please let me know what should i chnage in the netlist.
