Approach<br />

De-efficiency of the conventional approach<br />

• The analog / digital design processes<br />

are almost independent, lack of<br />

horizontal link<br />

• The spec. of analog circuit might be<br />

over-specified for ensuring correctness<br />

of system integration<br />

• Hard of analog/MS block reuse<br />
