  Simulink is a graphical environment that is widely adapted for the modeling
and the Laplace transform based analysis of linear analog circuits used in
signal processing architectures. However, due to the involvement of the
numerical algorithms of MATLAB in the analysis process, the analysis results
cannot be termed as complete and accurate. Higher-order-logic theorem proving
is a formal verification method that has been recently proposed to overcome
these limitations for the modeling and the Laplace transform based analysis of
linear analog circuits. However, the formal modeling of a system is not a
straightforward task due to the lack of formal methods background for engineers
working in the industry. Moreover, due to the undecidable nature of
higher-order logic, the analysis generally requires a significant amount of
user guidance in the manual proof process. In order to facilitate industrial
engineers to formally analyze the linear analog circuits based on the Laplace
transform, we propose a framework, FASiM, which allows automatically conducting
the formal analysis of the Simulink models of linear analog circuits using the
HOL Light theorem prover. For illustration, we use FASiM to formally analyze
Simulink models of some commonly used linear analog filters, such as Sallen-key
filters.
