Abstract :
This paper presents a behavioral model library of analogue and mixed circuits used in the radio-frequency domain. The models are described in VHDL-AMS and are carefully documented and validated, in order to be easily used by designers or model developers. These models allow one to explore systems architecture easily and rapidly
