Title: How to model an envelope detector in verilog-a?
Post by danda821 on Oct 5^th, 2006, 2:26pm

I am wondering how to model an envelope detector using verilog-a?

Also is there anyway to model the startup process of an oscillator? Normally the start up is not included in verilog-a code.

Thanks.

You could simply code a veriloga diode, C, R envelope detector. If i remember correctly, i think one of the first examples on the Cadence veriloga training course.

For modelling the startup behaviour of a vco you could you not just multiply the output signal by an envelope function desribing the envelop growth?

don't forget the resourses available on this web domain... look at the veriloga examples
