How to get the specifications for electronic components in some format other than reading datasheet? [closed]

Edited: Does anyone know if there is any available database that provides a description for electronic components? By database, I mean any of the following: HDL model format, a relational DB (sql), VHDL imported libraries, or even a json/xml REST service.

  • Explaining the issue

There are plenty of electronic component databases online but all of them provide the specification Datasheets in pdf. For example, https://octopart.com/

Aside from the "small" components (resistors, capacitors...), when engineers are creating a HDL netlist, say in VHDL format, they will have to go through the datasheets of every single component every time to create its Entity, Architecture, for either analogue or digital circuit...

So, I am looking for a database that provides the HDL models (or any structured description) for electronic components, or what can be provided at least. For programmable components such as FPGA or micro-controllers, it is fine to have the programmable structure empty, up to the engineer to complete. At least, the entities are ready to be instantiated when creating the HDL netlist.

  • The need of such database

For automation and Machine-learning algorithms, parsing datasheet from pdf is an additional and painful task. A structured (physical, electrical and even behavioral) description of electronic components will help. I know that companies manufacturing electronic circuits already have such database, but I am looking for one that is available online.

Thanks,
