چکیده

In this work, we expose our approach to design and optimize mixed analogue and digital systems at a high level description using the hardware description language VHDL-AMS. Many statistical experimental design methods are employed in optimization. We apply Hocke_D4 experimental designs with five parameters in order to minimize the lock time and the spurious level of a fractional-N synthesizer acting as a direct MSK modulator and designed for the DECT standard application. General Terms Computer aided design, Hardware description language, VHDLAMS, PLL.

Behavioral Modeling and Simulation of Semiconductor Devices and Circuits Using VHDL-AMS

During the past few years, a lot of work has been done on behavioral models and simulation tools. But a need for modeling strategy still remains. The VHDL-AMS language supports the description of analog electronic circuits using Ordinary Differential Algebraic Equations (ODAEs), in addition to its support for describing discrete-event systems. For VHDL-AMS to be useful to the analog design ...

VHDL-AMS: The Missing Link in System Design - Experiments with Unified Modelling in Automotive Engineering

After the IEEE ballot accepted the first draft language reference manual for VHDL-AMS (IEEE PAR 1076.1) in October 1997, we now can spend time and effort on applying the new arising methodology to real world problems outside the electronic domain. In automotive engineering we have system design problems dealing with hydraulic or mechanic components and their controlling units, for which we expe...
