Model Engineering in Mixed-Signal Circuit Design

The purpose of "Model Engineering in Mixed-Signal Circuit Design" is to combine the main issues of the hardware description language VHDL-AMS aimed at model representation of mixed-signal circuits and systems, of characterization methods and tools for the extraction of model parameters, and of modelling methodologies for accurate high-level behavioural models. This text offers a comprehensive and clear presentation of modeling flow as part of the design effort for mixed-signal circuits. The work emphasizes an engineering view on model generation and handling, thus providing an unique guide both for the practitioner and for students of electrical and computer engineering at graduate level.
