Sorry if you've already clarified, but is this meant to replace or augment traditional SPICE simulators? I remember Ken Kundert mentioned that, even with the improvements of Spectre over SPICE-based simulators, it took…
Do you think such an approach could extend to the final verification stage of a large post-extraction chip? My impression is that speedups are most sorely needed in this final sign off phase where the number of nodes…
More as background to ADI's acquisition of Linear Tech, but often these acquisitions come down to one chipmaker's desire to offer a full system. Take for instance Analog Devices' RF converters:…
To add a bit of context for anyone interested, there are some interesting reasons why switched capacitor circuits are powerful in integrated CMOS design. In terms of matching, the choice between resistors and capacitors…
Yep, that's the one.
The classic textbook for analog transistor-level design is Analysis and Design of Analog ICs by Gray and Meyer (mentioned in a footnote). It assumes a strong background and goes more for comprehension than building…
