Most hardware is designed through simulations. It mostly works. That is until it reaches a certain temperature you didn't simulate and exhibits a bug only at that temperature.
- GotAnyMegadeth 12y agoIf you are designing your own ASIC from scratch this is exactly the kind of problem you face all the time. It is VERY hard to simulate every single corner case. If you are designing a board with other people's chips on, where are you going to get the simulation models from?
