A novel technique for CAD-optimization of analog circuits with bipolar transistors

[摘要] In this paper, a novel approach for robust automatic optimization of analogcircuits with bipolar transistors is presented. It includes additionalformal parameters into the device model cards, which sweep the modelparameters smoothly between the different device types. In this way, notonly the sizing, but also the choice of the device type is committed to theoptimization tool, thus improving the efficiency of the design processsignificantly.
