How Verilog-AMS accelerates transistor modeling

Before circuit design can begin on any advanced semiconductor manufacturing process, the electrical behavior of the devices — transistors, diodes, resistors — must be described accurately in so-called ...

Hardware-assisted verification, from its dawn to SystemVerilog, UVM, and transactors

My [LR’s] first exposure to hardware emulation happened circa 1995 upon visiting a major processor firm in Austin, Texas. Its lab was jam-packed from floor to ceiling with monstrous hardware emulators ...

Verilog-AMS Update Integrates With HDL Standard

The latest version of Accellera’s Verilog-Analog Mixed-Signal (AMS) standard, Verilog-AMS 2.3, unifies the standard’s previous version with IEEE Std. 1364-2005, the Verilog hardware description ...

Application Hardware Modeling: Selective modeling for early prediction of subsystem performances through simulation

The virtual validation of subsystem performances (Pop-up Noise, Signal-to-Noise Ratio, Power supply Noise, Power consumption...) requires the modeling and simulation of complete subsystems.
