Analogue integrated circuit sizing with several optimization runs using heuristics for setting initial points Comment proportionner des circuits analogues intégrés avec plusieures marches d’optimisation à l’aide d’heuristique pour détérminer les points du départ
Circuit sizing (e.g. determining MOSFET channel widths and lengths which result in the most appropriate and robust circuit) is an optimization process. When it is completed, there always remains a dilemma, whether a better solution exists. With different starting points one can arrive at different local minima. A heuristic process, consisting of many optimization runs started from different ini...
متن کاملHeuristic Approach to Circuit Sizing Problem
Circuit sizing problem in application specific analog integrated circuit design is in most cases limited to setting MOSFET channel widths and lengths. It is usually performed by hand by an experienced human designer. As the circuit sizing is an optimization process by its nature, optimization methods could be used. They always lead to one of the minima of the cost function while eventual other ...
متن کاملDESA: a new hybrid global optimization method and its application to analog integrated circuit sizing
This paper presents a new hybrid global optimization method referred to as DESA. The algorithm exploits random sampling and the metropolis criterion from simulated annealing to perform global search. The population of points and efficient search strategy of differential evolution are used to speed up the convergence. The algorithm is easy to implement and has only a few parameters. The theoreti...
متن کاملOptimal Analog Circuit Sizing via Ant Colony Optimization Technique
We propose a novel adaptation of the Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) Technique for the resolution of analog sizing optimization problems. The paper details the proposed algorithm and highlights its performances using some mathematical test functions. This novel adaptation of the ACO technique is used for the optimal design of analog circuits, namely, a differential pair current conveyor and an in...
متن کاملLot-sizing Problem with Several Production Centers
In this paper, a case study is carried out concerning the lot-sizing problem involving a single item production planning in several production centers that do not present capacity constraints. Demand can be met with backlogging or not. This problem results from simplifying practical problems, such as the material requirement planning (MRP) system and also lot-sizing problems with multiple items...
