چکیده

The requirements of large system design place great demands upon the per formance and d iagnost ic capabilities of simulation. This paper explains how these requirements have been satisfied by an internallydeveloped simulator using a proprietary language and a proprietary platform. More significantly, this paper describes how the strengths of that system have been developed to create a VHDL simulator under UNIX while maintaining a performance level that significantly exceeds the leading commercial VHDL simulators.

Enhancing a VHDL Based Design Methodology with Application Specific Data Abstraction

VHDL has successfully been introduced into the design methodology for VLSI ASICs. This paper describes a high-level data abstraction and supporting tool that enhance this methodology in the telecommunication application domain. A significant performance gain was obtained by introducing the data abstraction outside the VHDL simulator. The enhanced methodology has been used in current ASIC design...

Methodical Aspects of VHDL-based Field Bus Modelling with a Controller Area Network

Methodical aspects are described to develop VHDL models of field bus systems. Field bus systems used in automatic control engineering are examples of distributed computing systems. Modelling of such a system is demonstrated with a Controller Area Network (CAN). The consideration ranges from the process to the control devices. Targets are functional verifications as well as performance predictio...

Design and Implementation of a High Speed Systolic Serial Multiplier and Squarer for Long Unsigned Integer Using VHDL

A systolic serial multiplier for unsigned numbers is presented which operates without zero words inserted between successive data words, outputs the full product and has only one clock cycle latency. The multiplier is based on a modified serial/parallel scheme with two adjacent multiplier cells. Systolic concept is a well-known means of intensive computational task through replication of func...

VHDL-AMS modeling of an automotive vibration isolation seating system

This paper presents VHDL-AMS model of an automotive vibration isolation seating system with an active electromechanical actuator. Five control algorithms for the actuator are implemented and their efficiencies are investigated by subjecting the system to a number of stimuli, such as a single jolt or noisy harmonic excitations. Simulations were carried out using the SystemVision simulator and re...

A Computational Model for Cell Survival/death Using Vhdl and Matlab Simulator

A well-structured and controlled design methodology, along with a supporting hierarchical design system, has been developed to optimally support the development effort on several programs requiring gate array and semi custom Very Large Scale Integration (VLSI) design. In this paper, we will present an application of VLSI in System Biology. This work examines signaling networks that control the ...
