Abstract :
SystemC is likely to become more and more important for the design of digital circuits from the specification down to the RT-level. Complex systems often contain analog components. This paper introduces concepts for the extension of the SystemC methodology for the specification and design of analog and mixed signal systems. The concepts are illustrated on a telecommunication system including digital hardware and software, analog filter and an analog environment.
