A Layout-Aware Synthesis Methodology for RF Circuits
In this paper a layout-aware RF synthesis methodology is presented. The methodology combines the power of a differential evolution algorithm with cost function response modeling and integrated layout generation to synthesize RF Circuits efficiently, taking into account all layout parasitics during the circuit optimization. The proposed approach has successfully been applied to the design of a high-performance downconverter mixer circuit, proving the effectiveness of the implemented design methodology.
