Files and Input/Output
In this chapter we look at the facilities in VHDL-AMS for file input and output. Files serve a number of purposes, one of which is to provide long-term data storage. In this context, “long-term” means beyond the lifetime of one simulation run. Files can be used to store data to be loaded into a model when it is run, or to store the results produced by a simulation. VHDL-AMS also provides specialized versions of file operations for working with text files. We show how textual input and output can be used to extend the user interface of a simulator with model-specific operations.
21.1 Files
We start our discussion of files by looking at the general-purpose mechanisms provided in VHDL-AMS for file input ...
