A large body of computer-aided techniques has been developed in recent years to assist
in the process of modeling, analyzing, and designing communication systems . These
computer-aided techniques fall into two categories: formula-based approaches, where the
computer is used to evaluate complex formulas, and simulation-based approaches, where the
computer is used to simulate the waveforms or signals that flow through the system. The
second approach, which involves “waveform”-level simulation (and often incorporates
analytical techniques), is the subject of this book.
Since performance evaluation and trade off studies are the central issues in the analysis
and design of communication systems, we will focus on the use of simulation for evaluating
the performance of analog and digital communication systems with the emphasis on digitalcommunication systems.
In this paper, we discuss efficient coding and design styles using verilog. This can beimmensely helpful for any digital designer initiating designs. Here, we address different problems rangingfrom RTL-Gate Level simulation mismatch to race conditions in writing behavioral models. All theseproblems are accompanied by an example to have a better idea, and these can be taken care off if thesecoding guidelines are followed. Discussion of all the techniques is beyond the scope of this paper, however,here we try to cover a few of them.
Abstract: This application note describes a new generation of digital-input Class D audio amplifiers that achieve high PSRRperformance, comparable to traditional analog Class D amplifiers. More importantly, these digital-input Class D amplifiersprovide additional benefits of reduced power, complexity, noise, and system cost.
Abstract: The DS4830 optical microcontroller's analog-to-digital converter (ADC) offset can change with temperature and gainselection. However, the DS4830 allows users to measure the ADC internal offset. The measured ADC offset is added to the ADCoffset register to nullify the offset error. This application note demonstrates the DS4830's ADC internal offset calibration in theapplication program.
