This paper presents an improvement to the previously developed MS2SV tool and the use of the tool in two mixed technology case study designs is presented. MS2SV was created to perform the translation of mixed technology system models developed in MATLAB/Simulink into a structural or behavioral description in VHDL-AMS. Previously, the MS2SV translated only models available within the integrated LIB MS2SV library. The enhancement to the tool presented and used here is an improvement to the original tool so that it now allows the designer to create their own libraries for model translation. To illustrate the use of the tool, a rudder controller and the Buck converter employed in an unmanned aerial vehicle were used as study case designs. For comparison with the original model in MATLAB/Simulink, the VHDL-AMS code obtained by the translation was simulated using the Mentor Graphics SystemVision environment. The results show the efficiency of the tool, using the translation improvement described in this paper, is improved.
