Abstract :
A system for statistical circuit analysis, yield estimation and design centering is presented. The system architecture is based on the decomposition of the simulation process into three logically independent layers. A dedicated language is a significant part of the system. Its syntax implements an advanced technique that allows one to create flexible circuit performance extraction procedures. An application example demonstrates the system capabilities
