a) do a toplevel simulation from backannotation (crazy)

Thanks for the quick reply.
a) is out of the question as this is a full rf-receiver.
b) A LVS match will only tell if there's a mismatch between the layout and schematic, not if the schematic is connected correctly.
I'll see what I can do with the netlist.
At the moment I am relying on mixed-mode simulations to catch any wrong polarities or mis-connecitons. But this is more to verify the interaction between the digital control and the individual blocks. My verilogAMS views are not that detailed that they catch whether a current supply bias line has been used twice.
