  • Abstract
    Links from digital simulators to automatic test equipment (ATE) are now an accepted, and in many cases indispensable part of the digital circuit designer´s armoury. However similar facilities for testing analogue and mixed-signal circuits are virtually unknown. This paper describes a test equipment independent method for automatically creating test programs from SPICE simulations of these circuits
