A Holistic Approach to Low-Power, Mixed-Signal Design Verification Using Power Intent
Today’s complex, low-power analog and mixed-signal (AMS) systems on chip (SoCs) are comprised of logic (boolean, real) and transistor-level abstractions for design implementation, verification, validation, and test readiness. This situation mandates extensive use of AMS co-simulation[1][2][3] . Such designs are increasingly becoming power managed with multiple power/multi-voltage domains by nature. There are various techniques for […]
