Book Synopsis Electronic Design Automation of Analog ICs combining Gradient Models with Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms by : Frederico A.E. Rocha
Download or read book Electronic Design Automation of Analog ICs combining Gradient Models with Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithms written by Frederico A.E. Rocha. This book was released on 2013-09-24. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book applies to the scientific area of electronic design automation (EDA) and addresses the automatic sizing of analog integrated circuits (ICs). Particularly, this book presents an approach to enhance a state-of-the-art layout-aware circuit-level optimizer (GENOM-POF), by embedding statistical knowledge from an automatically generated gradient model into the multi-objective multi-constraint optimization kernel based on the NSGA-II algorithm. The results showed allow the designer to explore the different trade-offs of the solution space, both through the achieved device sizes, or the respective layout solutions.
