Abstract :
A description is given of models and techniques used in a switched-capacitor functional model generator. The proposed method is useful for achieving functional verification of chips consisting of clock generating circuitry, switched-capacitor circuits, and other analog or digital blocks. A program, MODGENSC, has been developed which generates the model directly from the circuit description in SWITCAP. With this capability, full-chip mixed digital/analog simulation is achievable and also the simulation time is reduced significantly
