Abstract
This chapter is concerned with symbolic analysis techniques for fault diagnosis and automatic design of analog circuits. After a first paragraph describing a software tool for the symbolic analysis developed by the authors, it details testability and fault diagnosis of analog circuits and presents a symbolic approach to the design centering problem. In addition, it highlights modeling of power electronic circuits based on symbolic techniques.
Keywords: Analog circuits, Circuit simulation, Symbolic Simulation CAD, Testability, Ambiguity groups, Circuit faults, Electrical fault detection, Design centering, Design optimization, Yield optimization, Acceptability region, DC-DC power converters, Power converter modeling
