There has been vast progress over the last 30 years or so in digital layout automation, making it possible to develop complex digital ICs relatively quickly. However, for analog layout, techniques are ...

However, for analog layout, techniques are still much the same as they were years ago. True, there have been some improvements such as using parameterized cells to generate Design Rule Check (DRC) ...

Meeting high-performance requirements at low power isn’t easy. What is already challenging in digital is even more complex in analog. After specification and block-level system concept, the analog ...

Digital circuit design is largely automated today, but most analog components still are designed manually. This may change soon. As analog design grows increasingly complex and error-prone, design ...

Chameleon adaptive analog modules from Okika provide preprogrammed, ready-to-use analog functions in a compact 14×11-mm form ...

Members can download this article in PDF format. Thomas Jefferson once elegantly stated that some truths we can hold to be self-evident. In electronics design, one of these truths is this: Nature ...

Companies to enable easy node-to-node migration for analog blocks with enhanced PDK across multiple FinFET processes to accelerate design closure Early customers seeing more than 2.5X design cycle ...

We often think of analog computing as a relic of the past, room-sized monstrosities filled with vacuum tubes doing their best to calculate Monte Carlo simulations or orbital velocities. Analog isn’t ...

Researchers from Peking University say their resistive random-access memory chip may be capable of speeds 1,000 faster than ...
