Nc. Gustard et Re. Massara, ON THE OPTIMAL-DESIGN OF SWITCHED-CAPACITOR FILTER CIRCUITS FOR ANALOG AND MIXED-SIGNAL INTEGRATED-CIRCUIT REALIZATION, Analog integrated circuits and signal processing, 6(3), 1994, pp. 219-229
This contribution describes developments in the use of numerical optim
ization techniques as part of a package whose function is to generate
silicon-level layout for general analog functional modules from high-l
evel specifications. The investigation is using switched-capacitor fil
ters as a case study that is representative, in terms of its associate
d physical layout problems, of many classes of analog circuits.
