Analog and mixed-signal integrated circuits play an important role in many modern
emerging system-on-chip (SoC) design applications. With the expansion of the markets of …

Routing techniques for analog and radio-frequency (A/RF) integrated circuit (IC) design
automation have been proposed in the literature for over three decades. On those, an …

In this paper, a hybrid design automation tool for asynchronous successive approximation
register analog-to-digital converters (SAR ADCs) in Internet-of-Things applications is …

In this paper, the concept of multi-objective optimization is introduced in the automation of
the placement task in analog integrated circuits layout design. To bridge the difficulties found …

In this paper, the concept of hierarchical multi-objective optimization is applied to analog
integrated circuit placement automation, where current-flow and current-density …

Current design of analog integrated circuits is still a time-consuming manual process
resulting in static analog blocks which can hardly be reused. In order to address this …

Layout design of analog integrated circuits suffers from a lack of automation due to the
multitude of complex design constraints. Most of them are specified and considered …

To obtain good layout quality and reliability, placement is a very important stage during the
physical design of analog circuits. Many works have been proposed to consider topological …

Analog layout design is a costly and error-prone task since analog synthesis is still far from
applicable. It is expected that procedural bottom-up generators managing constructive tasks …

In this paper, a methodology for automatic generation of placement templates for analog
integrated circuit design targeted to state-of-the-art optimization-based layout-aware circuit …
