Qualitative Abstraction based Verification for Analog Circuits
Résumé
The verification of analog designs is a challenging and exhaustive
task that requires deep understanding of the physical behaviors. In this paper,
we propose a qualitative based predicate abstraction method for the verification
of a class of non-linear analog circuits. The method is based on combining
techniques from constraint solving and computer algebra along with symbolic
model checking. We have implemented the proposed verification algorithms
using the computer algebra system Mathematica and the SMV model checker.
