LSI and Cadence records describe RNM verification of a hard-disk-drive preamplifier

A 2011 DVCon paper by LSI and Cadence authors describes real-number models for mixed-signal verification of a hard-disk-drive preamplifier and reports roughly 24x speedup over the referenced SPICE simulation with about 0.3% gain inaccuracy. A later Cadence-authored report describes LSI applying the models in mixed-signal SoC verification, reporting roughly 600x speedup, 95% accuracy, full functional coverage, and no functional bugs in first silicon. These performance and outcome statements retain their respective paper and vendor-report modalities.
