Abstract

This paper presents sizing rules for basic building blocks in analog bipolar circuit design. Sizing rules efficiently capture design knowledge on the technology-specific level of transistor-pair groups. This reduces the effort for and improves the resulting quality of analog circuit synthesis. We present a hierarchical library of transistor-pair groups as basic building blocks for analog bipolar circuits. Sizing rules are constraints associated to these building blocks that must be satisfied to guarantee the function and robustness of each block. Results of applications like circuit sizing or design centering show that the use of sizing rules leads to improved and robust results.
