Analog and mixed signal modelling with SystemC-AMS
نویسندگان
چکیده
SystemC will become more and more important for the design of digital circuits from the specification down to the RT-Level. Complex systems often contain analog components. This paper introduces concepts for the extension of the SystemC methodology for the specification and design of analog and mixed signal systems. The concepts will be illustrated on a telecommunication system including digital hardand software, analog filter and an analog environment.

A Fast and Accurate SystemC / SystemC-AMS Model for Super-Regenerative Radio
Nowadays, communication system has become a very important part of modern live. In order to dramatically reduce the cost and design time of a radio system, a unified design environment that can be used efficiently by system designers for modelling and simulation is very desirable. However, one of the main problems is that the simulation of a radio system is very time consuming or even impossibl...
متن کاملAn Introduction to Modeling Embedded Mixed-Signal Systems
SystemC AMS extensions introduce new language constructs for the design of embedded analog/mixed-signal systems. This paper presents the novel modeling language for analog and mixed-signal functions that supports design and modeling of telecommunications, automotive and imaging sensor applications at various levels of abstraction. A simple example illustrates how these new features facilitate a...
متن کاملEnriching UVM in SystemC with AMS extensions for randomization and functional coverage*
The Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) is a coverage driven verification approach, which has become the standard for the verification of digital systems. The framework provided by UVM makes it possible to create structured test environments, which facilitates the reuse of verification components and scenarios. However, the UVM library is only available for SystemVerilog, limiting the veri...
متن کاملSystemC AMS Extensions: Solving the Need for Speed
—In March 2010, the Open SystemCTM Initiative (OSCI) released the SystemC Analog/Mixed-signal (AMS) 1.0 standard, introducing AMS language constructs and semantics as natural extensions to SystemC. This new standard fulfills the need for a unified system-level modeling language to design and verify real heterogeneous applications composed of AMS and digital HW/SW systems. In addition, it allows...
متن کاملChecking Heterogeneous Signal Characteristics Applying Assertion-Based Verification
Heterogeneous system verification lacks on functional and formal verification methodologies. A verification gap exists between the different signal domains. To bridge this gap an assertion-based design method is essential. This requires the integration of the special analog characteristics in formal digital temporal assertions. Therefore, we defined a new set of mixed-signal assertions to impro...
