Traditional methodologies for Analog and Mixed-Signal (AMS) verification present many drawbacks. Analog design verification is usually subjective due to the lack of automatic checks and the poor control on stimuli and results. Moreover, verification of mixed-mode circuits is often incomplete due to fact that analog and digital macros are simulated with two different environments with insufficient interaction.
