In this paper, we describe a mixed-signal simulation framework based on the SystemC C++ class libraries. By adding an analog extension to SystemC, we have developed a modular functional level simulation environment that achieves comparable accuracy to MATLAB. We illustrate the usability of the framework by presenting the results of an investigation of the properties of a background calibration technique for pipelined analog-to-digital converters.
