I'm interested in running a functional verification on the bipolar LSI
design.  Requirements for this simulator are:

   1)  Uses SPICE netlist with node names.
   2)  Able to simulate hierarchical design.
   3)  At least 10X speed improvement over SPICE, assuming that SPICE
       can even simulate it.
   4)  Able to detect incompatible voltage levels(i.e. high input voltage
       into ECL gate causing saturation).

Does anyone know of such a simulator? 

                        Thanks in advance,
                        John Muramatsu
