Hardcover. Integrated circuits are fundamental electronic components in biomedical, automotive and many other technical systems. A small, yet crucial part of a chip consists of analog circuitry. This part is still in large part designed by hand and therefore represents not only a bottleneck in the design flow, but also a permanent source of design errors responsible for re-designs, costly in terms of wasted test chips and in terms of lost time-to-market. Layout design is the step of the analog design flow with the least support by commercially available, computer-aided design tools.This book provides a survey of promising new approaches to automated, analog layout design, which have been described recently and are rapidly being adopted in industry.

Riassunto

Integrated circuits are fundamental electronic components in biomedical, automotive and many other technical systems. A small, yet crucial part of a chip consists of analog circuitry. This part is still in large part designed by hand and therefore represents not only a bottleneck in the design flow, but also a permanent source of design errors responsible for re-designs, costly in terms of wasted test chips and in terms of lost time-to-market. Layout design is the step of the analog design flow with the least support by commercially available, computer-aided design tools. This book provides a survey of promising new approaches to automated, analog layout design, which have been described recently and are rapidly being adopted in industry.

Analog Layout Synthesis: A Survey of Topological ApproachesEdited by: Helmut E. Graeb Analog components appear on 75% of all chips, and cause 40% of the design effort and 50% of the re-designs. Due to increasing functional complexity of systems-on-chip, the difficulties in analog design and the lack of design automation support for analog circuits make analog components a bottleneck in chip design. Design methodology and design automation for analog circuits therefore is a crucial problem for developing systems-on-chip and layout synthesis is a key part of the analog design flow. Layout design is the step of the analog design flow with the least support by commercially available, computer-aided design tools. This book provides a survey of promising new approaches to automated, analog layout design, which have been described recently and are rapidly being adopted in industry.•Presents a comprehensive survey of promising new methods for automated, analog layout design;•Covers a variety recent of approaches to topological placement of analog circuits; •Provides a comprehensive overview of routing issues and techniques for analog circuits;•Provides a complete view of analog layout in the design flow, including retargeting an existing layout for a new technology, integrating layout in the sizing process, and constraint management;•Represents a one-of-a-kind, single-source reference to the latest advances in analog layout synthesis.
