Analog circuit optimization system based on hybrid evolutionary algorithms

This paper investigates a hybrid evolutionary-based design system for automated sizing of analog integrated circuits (ICs). A new algorithm, called competitive co-evolutionary differential evolution (CODE), is proposed to design analog ICs with practical user-defined specifications. On the basis of the combination of HSPICE and MATLAB, the system links circuit performances, evaluated through el...

Automated Topology and Sizing of Analog Circuits Automated Design of Both the Topology and Sizing of Analog Electrical Circuits Using Genetic Programming

This paper describes an automated process for designing analog electrical circuits based on the principles of natural selection, sexual recombination, and developmental biology. The design process starts with the random creation of a large population of program trees composed of circuit-constructing functions. Each program tree specifies the steps by which a fully developed circuit is to be pro...

A Bond Graph Representation Approach for Automated Analog Filter Design

We present a novel circuit representation scheme, namely bond graph, along with strong-typed genetic programming for the evolution of analog filter circuits. Bond graph is a concise and uniform language for the description of circuit systems and more general engineering systems. Many unique characteristics of bond graph makes it an attractive candidate for representing circuit in genetic progra...

Design of a Single-Layer Circuit Analog Absorber Using Double-Circular-Loop Array via the Equivalent Circuit Model

A broadband Circuit Analogue (CA) absorber using double-circular-loop array is investigated in this paper. A simple equivalent circuit model is presented to accurately analyze this CA absorber. The circuit simulation of the proposed model agrees well with full-wave simulations. Optimization based the equivalent circuit model, is applied to design a single-layer circuit analogue absorber using d...
