V2Va +: An Efficient SystemVerilog & Verilog-to-Verilog-A Translator for Accelerated Mixed-Signal Simulation by Chao Wang, Yicong Shao, Jiajie Huang, Wangzilu Lu, Zhiwen Gu, Longfan Li, Yuhang Zhang, Jian Zhao, Wei Mao, Yongfu Li

“…This paper introduces a streamlined SystemVerilog & Verilog-to-Verilog-A (V2Va +) translation tool that automates the conversion of synthesizable SystemVerilog and Verilog code into Verilog-A code, enabling concurrent simulation of analog and digital circuits. Through a set of mapping rules, V2Va + facilitates mixed-signal simulations in an analog environment, negating the requirement for a separate mixed-signal simulation engine and overcoming multiple types of EDA licensing obstacles. …”

Analysis and Verilog-A Modeling of Floating-Gate Transistors by Sayma Nowshin Chowdhury, Matthew Chen, Sahil Shah

“…Floating-gate transistors provide non-volatile analog storage in standard CMOS processes and are crucial in the development of reconfigurable Systems on Chips (SoCs), programmable analog structures, analog neural networks, and mixed-signal neuromorphic circuits. Designing and fabricating these circuits typically involves extensive SPICE-based simulations, yet integrating and calibrating floating-gate transistors post-fabrication is a common practice. …”
