Abstract :
This paper describes the use of behavioural modelling for accurate and efficient simulation of data converters. Examples of behavioural models of building blocks for different classes of converters are provided and analysed. The need for dedicated high-level simulation tools for particular system architectures is also discussed. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed methods in the design of data converters
