Siemens and Ain Shams authors compare a SystemVerilog PLL model with transistor-level outputs

Mariam Maurice, Mohamed Dessouky, and Ashraf Salem published an IEEE Access paper on analog PLL modeling in an event-driven simulator. It uses piecewise-linear value/slope representations with SystemVerilog user-defined types and nets for higher-order loop filters, models fractional division and phase noise, and represents output loading with resolved nets. The paper compares modeled PLL outputs with transistor-level simulation.
