The System Designer's Guide to VHDL - AMS
Peter J. Ashenden, Gregory D. Peterson, Darrell A. Teegarden
Résumé
The demand is exploding for complete, integrated systems that sense, process, manipulate, and control complex entities such as sound, images, text, motion, and environmental conditions. These systems, from hand-held devices to automotive sub-systems to aerospace vehicles, employ electronics to manage and adapt to a world that is, predominantly, neither digital nor electronic.
To respond to this design challenge, the industry has developed and standardized VHDL-AMS, a unified design language for modeling digital, analog, mixed-signal, and mixed-technology systems. VHDL-AMS extends VHDL to bring the successful HDL modeling methodology of digital electronic systems design to these new design disciplines.
Gregory Peterson and Darrell Teegarden join best-selling author Peter Ashenden in teaching designers how to use VHDL-AMS to model these complex systems. This comprehensive tutorial and reference provides detailed descriptions of both the syntax and semantics of the language and of successful modeling techniques. It assumes no previous knowledge of VHDL, but instead teaches VHDL and VHDL-AMS in an integrated fashion, just as it would be used by designers of these complex, integrated systems. Features
Explores the design of an electric-powered, unmanned
aerial vehicle system (UAV) in five separate case studies
to illustrate mixed-signal, mixed-technology, power
systems, communication systems, and full system
modeling.
Includes a CD-ROM with code for all the examples and case
studies in the book, an educational model library, a quick
reference guide for VHDL-AMS, a syntax reference from
Appendix E in the book, links to VHDL-AMS resources and
Mentor Graphics SystemVision software, which provides a
simulation and modeling environment with a schematic entry
tool, a VHDL-AMS simulator, and a waveform viewing
facility.
