What is BS IEC 61691-6 about?
BS IEC 61691-6 is the sixth part of a multi-series standard. It includes information about behavioural languages for the hardware description language.
BS IEC 61691-6 defines a hardware description language for the description and the simulation of analog, digital, and mixed-signal systems.
Informally called VHDL-AMS (VHSIC Hardware Description Language for Analog and Mixed-Signal, where VHSIC stands for Very High-Speed Integrated Circuits), the language is built on the IEEE 1076™ (VHDL) language and extends it to provide capabilities of writing and simulating analog and mixed-signal models.
Who is BS IEC 61691-6 for?
BS IEC 61691-6 on VHDL Analog and Mixed-Signal Extensions is applicable to:
- System designers
- Framework designers
- Manufacturers of electronic circuits and components
- Dealers and importers of electronic circuits and components
Why should you use BS IEC 61691-6?
BS IEC 61691-6 provides capabilities for describing and simulating analog and mixed-signal systems with conservative and nonconservative semantics for the analog portion of the system. The language supports modeling at many abstraction levels in electrical and nonelectrical energy domains for lumped systems that can be described by ordinary differential equations and algebraic equations.
BS IEC 61691-6 gives you the complete reference of the IEEE 1076.1 VHDL language, including the unchanged portions of the base language and the extensions which helps you in design management and implementation.
BS IEC 61691-6 provides you extensive information on design entities, subprograms and packages, types and natures, declarations, specifications, expressions and more which enhances productivity and functionality of systems.
