A method and system for formally verifying designs having elements from
more than a single design domain is described. An example system allows
formal verification of a design containing mixed analog and digital
subparts. The system may use different proof engines to solve an
appropriate sub-partition of the entire design, and may provide a
framework for translating between the different domains to create a
unified result. For example, a digital proof engine may be used for a
digital only subpart, while an analog proof engine may be used for an
analog only subpart. The system may use the partitioning results to
determine translators between the various domains, and an order in which
the proof engines are applied.
