Vhdl-ams beginner

Hi,

 I'm really new in vhdl-ams, I write my firsts codes in this langage and I have some issues to understand some basics of this extension.

My tutor want me to describe an analogic comparator and test it with a ramp waveform. A schema of this circuit is in attachment.

I don't know how to connect the both entity like on the schema. What kind of type, class, mode I have to use for each port of each entity.

And above all how to simulate the hole component (ramp + comparator) in a testbench...

 Maybe my questions are surprising but I never study vhdl-ams in college so I have a large lack of informations that internet can't provide me...

Regards,

Sebastien

    Behavioral Modeling with VHDL-AMS (same course available in other regions). Also for books:

    The System Designer's Guide to VHDL-AMS: Analog, Mixed-Signal, and Mixed-Technology Modeling (Systems on Silicon... by Peter J. Ashenden, Gregory D. Peterson and Darrell A. Teegarden (Sep 18, 2002)

    and:

    VHDL-AMS : Applications et enjeux industriels (French Edition) by Herve

    or (in English):

    VHDL-AMS by Yannick Herve (Mar 1, 2006)

    There are also tutorials on AMS Designer in the documentation, which have more of a tool focus.

    Andrew.
