Model Quality Assurance (MQA) is an automated SPICE model validation software which allows you to check and analyze SPICE model library, compare different models, and generate quality assurance (QA) reports in a complete and efficient way. With more than ten years of history, Model QA has become the industry standard for SPICE model acceptance and signoff and is widely adopted by leading integrated device manufacturers (IDMs), foundries and design houses.
