PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a failure detection simulation system for an analog circuit, which allows consideration as to what test conditions are appropriate for detecting failures in the elements of an analog circuit.;SOLUTION: The failure detection simulation system for detecting a failure in an analog circuit includes failure model parameters, showing the characteristics of the failure conditions for elements included in a net list 20, representing the analog circuit. The failure rate for each element is calculated, by applying the failure model parameters to each element and executing a circuit simulation, with preset expected values for the input and the output set as the test conditions.;COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
