ELECTRONIC SCHEMATIC ARCHIVE

Digital Interface Systems, Inc. (DIS), proposes to develop a methodology to automate the archival of electronic schematics in electronic format that is compatible to the Department of Defense (DoD) Automatic Test Systems (ATS) Computer Aided Design (CAD) database standards. DIS proposes two steps to develop the process as required in the description of this Solicitation: under the Phase I of this proposal, the first step is to convert all schematic drawings, hand scribbles and other unconventionally documented means to electronic format by first scanning the documents into an adequately specified PC, then with adequately specified CAD Software, convert the raster format into a vector format, with an appropriately developed front end database; the second step is to device a method to automatically simulate the vectorized format, by applying electronic design automation method of design entry, logic synthesis, design verification and testing, within the platform of hardware descriptive language environment of VHDL or Verilog.
