Circuit Design Process as a Controllable Dynamic System

Abstract

The formulation of the process of analog circuit design has been done on the basis of the control theory application. This approach produces the set of different design strategies inside the same optimization procedure. Basic equations for this design methodology were elaborated. The problem of the time-optimal design algorithm construction is defined as the problem of a functional minimization of the optimal control theory. By this context the design process is defined as a controllable dynamic system. Numerical results of some electronic circuit design demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed methodology and prove the non-optimality of the traditional design strategy.
