UVM-SystemC-AMS based framework for the correct by construction design of MEMS in their real heterogeneous application context

Abstract

Each new embedded system tends to integrate more sensors with tight software-driven control, digitally assisted analog circuits, and heterogeneous structure. A more responsive simulation environment is needed to support the co-design and verification of such complex architectures including all its digital hardware/software and analog/multi-physical aspects using Multi-Disciplinary Virtual Prototyping (MDVP). Taking a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) vibration sensor as an example, we introduce a reusable framework based on the state-of-the-art technologies SystemC AMS, Finite Elements/Reduced-Order modeling, and UVM to design, simulate, and verify such systems in their real application context
