Abstract
An interactive “set-and-see” simulator combines the Magic VLSI layout editor [Ousterhout, et al., 1984] and the Esim switch-level simulator [Terman, 1983] in a unique way. From the layout editor, the designer can extract, flatten, and initialize the circuit for simulation. The designer can set logic values of nodes interactively and see the resulting (simulated) node values displayed directly on the layout. The set-and-see simulator suggests the same mode of operation with other editors/simulators
