At the risk of sounding ignorant - what is Verilog-A? I've
heard of Verilog, Verilog-2000, System Verilog, System-C,
VHDL, ABEL and probably some others that I've forgotten
about. Is this yet another HDL? I also just read about a
Python based HDL (see myhdl.com).
Verilog for analog.
verilog-A can be extremely useful for simulating large systems. It's
pretty easy to come up with a verilog-A model for a complex block which
can dramatically speed up top level simulations when you're just
checking for top level functionality. Its also a way to quickly develop
models for devices.
