Abstract
A new algorithm for switch-level simulation is suggested which allows the simulator to be fully dynamic, i.e., several signals may propagate in the network simultaneously. It is shown how this algorithm can be combined with a timing model. Finally, it is demonstrated how a simulator based on this algorithm can handle problems such as charge sharing and clock skewing in general CMOS circuits.
