Integration of Sneak Analysis with Design. Volume 1

Abstract

This report documents the work in the creation of a software package to be used by a design engineer to prevent sneak circuit failures in a new design. Sneak Circuit Analysis for the Common Man was an interim report that was issued representing the manual procedure for identifying possible sneak circuits. This report presents the automated version to be used on an IBM PC under MS/DOS. The Sneak Circuit Analysis (SCA) software package uses the ORCAD II schematic capture program to analyze the circuitry. SCA will search for potential sneak paths and identify them for the user. SCA will then offer suggestions to the user to correct the design weaknesses. The software package handles analog as well as digital circuits and for very large networks, a sectional analysis is possible.
