[[File:ACCvsPrecision.jpg|thumb|Comparative waveforms for logic values, circuit voltages, and measure voltages]]
In [[logic simulation]], a common mistake in evaluation of accurate models is to compare a [[electronic circuit simulation|logic simulation model]] to a [[transistor]] [[transistor models|circuit simulation model]]. This is a comparison of differences in precision, not accuracy. Precision is measured with respect to detail and accuracy is measured with respect to reality.<ref>{{cite journal|title=none| first= John M. |last= Acken |work= Encyclopedia of Computer Science and Technology |volume= 36 |year= 1997| pages= 281–306}}</ref><ref>{{cite journal| title= 1990 Workshop on Logic-Level Modelling for ASICS |first1= Mark |last1= Glasser |first2= Rob |last2= Mathews |first3= John M. |last3= Acken |journal=SIGDA Newsletter |volume= 20 |number=  1 |date= June 1990}}</ref>
