Custom DC Operating Point Definitions or Overwriting the .dcOpInfo.info file?

$

Our foundry provides a subcircuit model which produces correct ID-VD and ID-VG curves. However, the .OP vdssat (based on BSIM definition) is wildy different than what is expected, ~200mV higher.

What I want:

(1) Custom definition of Vdssat, for example vdssatxxx based on Rout degradation

(2) Must be able to back-annotate on the schematic

One way I was thinking is to run a DC sweep, calculate the value vdssatxxx based on my arbitrary definition, and then overwrite the original .dcOpInfo.info file's vdssat with the the calculated value vdssatxxx from the DC sweep. Now, when I back-annotate it should read the .dcOpInfo.info file that was overwritten.

(1) Is this a reasonable way to do it?

(2) How do I overwrite the existing dcOPInfo.info file (replace vdssat with an arbitrary value that I have calculated)? Does OCEAN have this feature?

(3) Is there a better way to have a custom-defined operating point parameter that can be back-annotated?
