Bit-true simulation verifies the finite word length choices in the VLSI implementation of a DSP application. Present-day bit-true simulation tools are time consuming. We elaborate a new approach in which the signal flow graph of the application is analyzed and then transformed utilizing the flexibility available on the simulation target. This global approach outperforms current tools by an order of magnitude in simulation time.
