Course Description
In this advanced Engineer Explorer course, you explore an in-depth approach to behavioral modeling of analog and mixed-signal design blocks and systems.
In this two-day course, you first examine digital modeling concepts and later analog and mixed-signal modeling concepts. You create parameterized Verilog-AMS models for analog and mixed-signal blocks and verify their functionality and performance using the SpectreAMS Designer simulator in the Virtuoso® environment or the Xcelium™ Mixed-Signal Simulator environment.
As optional modules, you identify how to handle analog interdependencies, modeling in the frequency domain, and the Waveform Specification (wave) feature in the ADE Assembler Environment for validating models, along with basic information on the Waveform Viewers like the Virtuoso Visualization and Analysis and SimVision graph windows to examine the mixed-signal simulation results.
Learning Objectives
After completing this course, you will be able to:
- Apply the concepts of behavioral modeling and know when to employ models to your advantage
- Create Verilog, Verilog-A, and Verilog-AMS behavioral models to perform the given functions
- Verify the functionality and performance of the models that you create using the Spectre AMS Designer simulator
- Generate a library of common functions for smoothing discontinuous behavior and model common analog effects
- Explore some of the best practices for modeling analog components
- Interpolate with table models and explore the different system tasks and functions in Verilog-AMS
