transient simulation noise

Could anyone tell me:

if perform a transient simulation in Hspice, Does noise from MOS and resistor be added to the final print-out voltage?

It depends upon the settings with your simulator tools. Normally there exist a switch with which you can set or unset the noise associated with the resistor & MOS.
by the way which simulator are you using ?
 

The transient simulation in Hspice doesn't include circuit noises. Noise analysis should be performed in frequency domain.

Use AC analysis,u can get noise

Hspice doesn't included, but Spectre's transient simulation does!

 

Re: "Does transient simulation included noise voltage?&

As I remember, in Hspice , both .ac and .net command are needed for noise analyses.
In Spectre, the noise included in transient simulation is for PSS I guess.

I don't think spectre's transient include noise. A proof is similating a inverter osc , it would not oscillate
