Abstract
This paper presents a complete method for automatically translating VHDL-AMS behavioral-specifications of analog systems into op amp level net-lists of library components. We discuss the three fundamental aspects, that pertain to any behavioral synthesis environment: the specification language, the rules for compiling language constructs into a technology-independent, intermediate representation, and the synthesis (mapping) of representations to net-lists (topologies) of library components, so that performance constraints are satisfied. We motivate the effectiveness of the method by presenting our synthesis results for 5 examples.
