  Abstract

Recently, system level design languages (SLDLs), which can describe both hardware and software aspects of the design, are receiving attentions. Analog mixed-signal (AMS) extensions to SLDLs enable current discrete-oriented SLDLs to describe and simulate not only digital systems but also digital-analog mixed-signal systems. In this paper, we present our work on the AMS extension to one of the system level design language—SpecC. The extended language supports designer to describe all the analog, digital and software aspects in a universal language.

Key Words: system level design language, AMS, SpecC, continuous behavior
