Analogy Unveils VeriasHDL Multi-Language, Single Kernel Simulator and VHDL-AMS Compiler.BEAVERTON, Ore.--(BUSINESSment Analogy, Inc. (Nasdaq:ANLG ANLG Analog ), the leader in mixed-signal and mixed-technology simulation, introduthe recently approved analog, mixed-signal and "VeriasHDL is the first product component in our TheHDL(TM) open simulation environment for electronicslator for the new VHDL-AMS language as well as (including Verilog, VHDL (VHSIC Hardware Description Language) A hardware description language (HDL) used to design electronic systems at the component, board and system level. VHDL allows models to be developed at a very high level of abstraction. , Verilog-AMS, MAST(R)nal design and simulation." VeriasHDL is ainked via backplane or analog/digital co-simulation technology. The single kernel efficiently solves for bothhe same way that Analogy's Saber(R) simulator drder to achieve simulation speed and accuracy. This was a big challenge that we were able to meet only because of our expertise in single kernel mixed-signal simulation." VeriasHDL is encapsulated within an open architecture, the interface specifications for which are being published by Analogy. The interfaces include Advanced Intermediate Representation with Extensibility (AIRE), Mixed-Signal Waveform Database Interface (MSWDI), Standard Programming Language Interface (SPLI) and Digital Co-Simulation Interface (DCSI DCSI Department of Community Supervision and Intervention DCSI Deputy Chief of Staff for Intelligence (Army) DCSI Data and Control Signal Interface (NASA) DCSI Defense Communications System Installation ). Developed as a part of the DARPA DARPA: see Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency. (Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) The name given to the U.S. Advanced Research Projects Agency during the 1980s. It was later renamed back to ARPA. VHDL program, the extended version of the Advanced Intermediate Representation with Extensibility (AIRE) de-couples the language compilers from VeriasHDL. This enables industry re-use of compiler technology as well as the ability to foster new tool developments such as system design languages, which could be implemented on top of the new kernel by third-party vendors as well as Analogy. "There have been several forces at work in the development of our TheHDL open simulation environment and the launch of VeriasHDL at DAC See D/A converter and discretionary access control. DAC - Digital to Analog Converter ," Doug Lundin explained. "The recent IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, New York, www.ieee.org) A membership organization that includes engineers, scientists and students in electronics and allied fields. standardization of VHDL-AMS and the increasing use of soft-IP in a variety of language standards have been strong drivers. But so too is the ongoing application of system-on-chip design. The complexity involved in these issues is dictating the use of top-down techniques in all aspects of the design process and not just for digital elements. Mixed-signal and mixed-technology are now equally essential to the design process. Only our TheHDL open simulation environment is addressing all of these forces."
