ADMS is a code generator that converts electrical compact device models specified in high-level description language into ready-to-compile c code for the API of spice simulators.

The compiler takes as input Verilog-AMS description of compact models and transforms the input according to a set of XML rules (similar to XSL transforms of XML documents.) XML interfaces from Verilog-AMS to spectre/CADENCE API and to ads/AGILENT public API are available.
