Live demonstration: Using SIMULINK S-functions for the efficient modeling and simulation of analog integrated circuits and systems

This demo shows how to implement efficient behavioral modeling and simulation techniques for the systematic design of analog circuits and systems in MATLAB/SIMULINK. The methodology described in the demo is based on the use of C-coded SIMULINK S-functions to develop precise models of analog circuits, which allow designers to simulate complex systems with reduced simulation time, while keeping high accuracy. This simulation approach can be combined with an optimizer to automate the high-level synthesis and verification of many different analog integrated systems. As an application, two different toolboxes developed using the proposed techniques are illustrated in this demo: one is intended for the simulation of wireless receivers and the other one focuses on ΣΔ data converters. Through the multiple examples included in these toolboxes, visitors will experience the philosophy behind the presented approach and will learn how to apply it to their own designs and projects.
