Download or read book Automated Hierarchical Synthesis of Radio-Frequency Integrated Circuits and Systems written by Fábio Passos and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-07-11 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes a new design methodology that allows optimization-based synthesis of RF systems in a hierarchical multilevel approach, in which the system is designed in a bottom-up fashion, from the device level up to the (sub)system level. At each level of the design hierarchy, the authors discuss methods that increase the design robustness and increase the accuracy and efficiency of the simulations. The methodology described enables circuit sizing and layout in a complete and automated integrated manner, achieving optimized designs in significantly less time than with traditional approaches.
