Abstract :
This paper presents an overview of the popular applications of symbolic methods nowadays as they pertain to circuit design. The specific applications that are discussed are: insight into circuit behavior, device modeling and extraction, behavioral and functional modeling and structural synthesis. The application of symbolic analysis in each of these areas is illustrated via a description of a specific methodology
