چکیده

Tolerances are a very important property of a design. This paper presents a method for simulating tolerances in signal processing and control systems on the system level using affine arithmetic. The method is compard to simulation based on interval arithmetic or Monte-Carlo method and goes into details of the shortcomings of interval arithmetic. An introduction to affine arithmetic is given and the corresponding model of tolerances is described. The concept of the implementation is given and a case study of a control loop modeled on the system level is presented. This small system is simulated using affine arithmetic and is based on an early prototype of SystemC-AMS.

Modeling and Simulation of Substrate Noise in Mixed-Signal Circuits Applied to a Special VCO

The mixed-signal circuits with both analog and digital blocks on a single chip have wide applications in communication and RF circuits. Integrating these two blocks can cause serious problems especially in applications requiring fast digital circuits and high performance analog blocks. Fast switching in digital blocks generates a noise which can be introduced to analog circuits by the common su...

A Comparative Survey of Modeling Absorption Tower Using Mixed Amines

In natural gas treatment, the removal of CO2 and H2S in acid gases is a critical concern. There are various purification technologies that can be used for the removal of acid gas impurities. Absorption of acid gas into amines is one preferred method in gas industries. In the past, single amines was used, but recently in order to improve absorption performance, mixed amines with different solubi...
