Hello,
 
The Verilog-AMS/2005 syntax and keyword sections have been added to the Mantis database (item 0000810). Please have a look at them. Below is a list of notes and question about these sections of the LRM.

1) AMS was merged into the 2005 document (instead of 2005 being merged into the AMS document). AMS extensions are identified by blue text.
2) Moved the analog_generate_loop_statement into the generate construct section as it is extension of the 2005 generate construct.
3) Array and string parameter declaration syntax has merged into the 2005 parameter declaration syntax.
4) Keyword "abstol" in section B.2 need to be moved into B.1 as it can be accessed from module declaration.
5) Verilog-AMS B.2 and B.3 sections have been collapsed into the B.1 since 2005 did not have any corresponding 2005 sub-sections. Why where these subsections created in the first place?
6) It appears from the document formatting that all of the keywords are to be contained on a single page. To maintain this constraint the font size was substantially reduced when AMS keywords were added. Should the single page format be maintained or restore the original font size and have a 2 page list of keywords?
7) Header and footer updated to reflect AMS merger.
8) Compiler directives and system task/functions has significant syntax. Why is the syntax for constructs not documented in the syntax annex?
 
Regards
Graham
