模拟合成工具未能迁移到主流使用,主要是因为在协调的简化模型所需的合成与工业强度的仿真环境所需的验证困难。MAELSTROM是一种新的方法,它使用为验证电路而创建的相同仿真环境来合成电路。我们引入了一种新的遗传/退火优化器,并利用网络并行性来实现高效的模拟器在环模拟合成。
Analog synthesis tools have failed to migrate into mainstream use primarily because of difficulties in reconciling the simplified models required for synthesis with the industrial-strength simulation environments required for validation. MAELSTROM is a new approach that synthesizes a circuit using the same simulation environment created to validate the circuit. We introduce a novel genetic/annealing optimizer, and leverage network parallelism to achieve efficient simulator-in-the-loop analog synthesis.
