The scaling of CMOS technology into the nanometer era enables the fabrication of highly integrated systems, which increasingly contain analog and/or RF parts. However, scaling into...
: In chip design, one of the main objectives is to decrease its clock cycle; however, the existing approaches to timing analysis under uncertainty are based on fundamentally restri...

Our target is automation of analog circuit's layout, which is a bottleneck in mixed-signal's design. We formulate the layout explicitly considering manufacturing process...
The circuit tuning problem is best approached by means of gradient-based nonlinear optimization algorithms. For large circuits, gradient computation can be the bottleneck in the o...
