SpiceCheck SpiceCheck Datasheet

SpiceCheck is a transistor-level static netlist checker that helps designers meet the verification challenges of today’s complex ICs, which involve low-power, multi-rail high-speed designs. Problems that are difficult to detect by Spice transient simulations -- like missing inter-domain level shifter, constant-on leakage path and max nodal-voltage checks, for example -- can efficiently be addressed by SpiceCheck. Full Tcl programmability coupled with built-in verification rules makes SpiceCheck flexible for different design types yet delivers out-of-the-box productivity.
