 The emergence of static memory–based FPGAs that are capable of being dynamically reconfigured, i.e. partially reconfigured while active, has resulted in research into new methods of digital systems synthesis. At present, however, there are virtually no CAD tools to support the design of digital systems using dynamic reconfiguration. This paper reports on an investigation of new simulation too...

The faster the scale of integration of digital circuits increases the more important is the acceleration of the verification. Based on a case study, this article explains a method of integrating hardware emulation into a simulation environment to speed up the verification. Therefore, we have developed an interface between the emulator and the simulation environment utilizing commercially availa...

This paper illustrates a simple model of digital/analog crosstalk, suitable for simulation of digital switching noise in integrated circuits with highly doped substrate and epitaxial layer. The proposed model is suitable for analog simulations using any SPICE-like simulator, and is useful during the design phase to compare different design/layout strategies and evaluate design robustness. A com...

This paper gives an overview of recent developments of the Building Controls Virtual Test Bed (BCVTB), a framework for co-simulation and hardware-in-theloop. First, a general overview of the BCVTB is presented. Second, we describe the BACnet interface, a link which has been implemented to couple BACnet devices to the BCVTB. We present a case study where the interface was used to couple a whole ...

An LDMOS RF high power amplifier with improved intermodulation distortion performance using digital predistortion is presented. The application of digital linearization method is being tested with the help of circuit simulation software ADS.

Heat exchangers are devices whose primary responsibility is the transfer (exchange) of heat, typically from one fluid to another. However, they are not only used in heating applications, such as space heaters, but are also used in cooling applications, such as refrigerators and air conditioners. Heat exchange processes often contain time-delay. This paper deals with design of universal and robu...

In this paper design of low pass optimal block digital filter is compared with traditional low pass overlap-save block digital filter. Simulation results show that global error obtained by optimal method is lower than that obtained by traditional overlap-save method. Index Terms Block digital filters, optimum design, overlap-save method, frobenius norm, aliasing, time-varying system.
