For Mixed Power,
High Reliability Circuits

Integrating circuit cores together in one chip exposes risks that can fly below the radar of conventional checking methods. After individual cores have been exhaustively simulated, there's still the question of reliability. This is an especially important topic in today's design flows for mixed power and low power.

Checking circuit reliability doesn't have to be difficult. A circuit engineer should be able to bring up a tool, with minimal setup, and get clear results. Tweak the circuit, fix an issue, and submit the updates. - All without waiting on the CAD team for help.

And simple to use doesn't mean simple minded. Checks must be smart enough to know about the ins and outs of real world circuits, automatically. Like novel level shifter topologies, ad-hoc domain isolation, safe vs unsafe power states, and other unexpected situations.
