Superseded Standard

IEEE 1666-2005

IEEE Standard SystemC(R) Language Reference Manual

SystemC(R) is defined in this standard. SystemC(R) is an ANSI standard C++ class library for system and hardware design for use by designers and architects who need to address complex systems that are a hybrid between hardware and software. This standard provides a precise and complete definition of the SystemC(R) class library so that a SystemC(R) implementation can be developed with reference to this standard alone. The primary audiences for this standard are the implementers of the SystemC(R) library, the implementers of tools supporting the class library, and users of the class library. The IEEE 1666 program grants public access to view and download the current individual IEEE standard at no charge in PDF format thanks to the Open System C Initiative.

1666-2023

IEEE Standard for Standard SystemCu00ae Language Reference Manual

SystemCu00ae is defined in this standard. SystemC is an ISO standard C++ class library for system and hardware design for use by designers and architects who need to address complex systems that are a hybrid between hardware and software. This standard provides a precise and complete definition of the SystemC class library so that a SystemC implementation can be developed with reference to this standard alone. The primary audiences for this standard are the implementors of the SystemC class library, the implementors of tools supporting the class library, and the users of the class library. (Thanks to our sponsor, the PDF of this standard is available at no charge through the IEEE GET Program https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/browse/standards/get-program/page/series?id=80)
