Abstract
Systems and methods for simulating and verifying an analog mixed signal design provide an analog mixed signal testbench configured to verify analog parameters of the design. The testbench can include a mechanism to fetch a value of an analog object in an analog portion of a mixed signal design. The testbench mechanism can include an argument specifying the name of the object and the analog quantity to be fetched for that object. The testbench can retrieve estimated values and can further specify timing constraints specifying absolute times or events at which values are to be measured and returned.
