A mixed digital-analog simulation and test environment

Abstract

A mixed digital-analog simulation and test environment, MIXTEST, has been developed, bridging the gap between a design and test department by automatic translation of the simulation results from the mixed digital-analog simulator, MIXSIM, into a mixed test program. This system truly allows design for testability on mixed digital-analog circuits, by using a test machine database containing all restrictions of the supported test equipment, during the design phase.<>
