Abstract :
A novel technique for modeling and simulating circuits and systems has been developed using LabVIEW(R) software. Complex analog circuits are modeled by their behavioral equivalent. Mixed-mode systems which are typically problematic for conventional simulators such as SPICE are easily simulated without excess overhead. Examples of op amps, counters, and a sigma-delta modulator system are included in this paper
