Introduction To Analog VLSI Design Automation: Printed Book

This document provides an introduction to analog VLSI design automation. It discusses how VLSI technologies are now combining digital and analog circuits on single chips for applications like telecommunications and image processing. While digital design can be efficiently done through computer-aided tools, analog design is still quite primitive and relies heavily on individual designer expertise. There is a need for advanced computer-aided tools to help design both digital and analog circuits as technologies continue advancing towards single-chip analog-digital systems.

Introduction to Analog VLSI Design Automation
Series: The Springer International Series in Engineering and Computer Science, Vol. 95

Very large scale integration (VLSI) technologies are now maturing with a current emphasis
toward submicron structures and sophisticated applications combining digital as well
as analog circuits on a single chip. Abundant examples are found on today's advanced
systems for telecom munications, robotics, automotive electronics, image processing,
intelli gent sensors, etc .. Exciting new applications are being unveiled in the field of
neural computing where the massive use of analog/digital VLSI technologies will have a
significant impact. To match such a fast technological trend towards single chip ana logi
digital VLSI systems, researchers worldwide have long realized the vital need of producing
advanced computer aided tools for designing both digital and analog circuits and systems
for silicon integration. Ar chitecture and circuit compilation, device sizing and the layout
genera tion are but a few familiar tasks on the world of digital integrated circuit design
which can be efficiently accomplished by matured computer aided tools. In contrast, the
art of tools for designing and producing analog or even analogi digital integrated circuits
is quite primitive and still lack ing the industrial penetration and acceptance already
1990, XIV, 186 p. achieved by digital counterparts. In fact, analog design is commonly perceived to be
one of the most knowledge-intensive design tasks and analog circuits are still designed,
largely by hand, by expert intimately familiar with nuances of the target application
Printed book and integrated circuit fabrication process. The techniques needed to build good analog
circuits seem to exist solely as expertise invested in individual designers.
