Description
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.
