TOPIC AREA: PHYSICAL CIRCUIT DESIGN (tools) | ||
| SESSION 39 | |||
| Advances in Optimization of Mixed-signal Circuits | |||
| Chair: Koen Lampaert - Mindspeed Technologies, Inc., Newport Beach, CA | |||
| Organizers: Geert Van Der Plas, Sandeep Shukla | |||
| This session reports recent advances in optimization of mixed-signal circuits. The session starts with a paper on optimization with ellipsoidal uncertainty for robust analog circuit design. In the second paper, a unified framework for the optimization of FIR equalization filters is presented. In the third paper, template-driven layout optimization with inclusion of parasitics is presented. In the last paper, an approach for inductor synthesis is presented that includes global and local optimization. | |||
