Abstract :
Layout Description Script (LDS) is a domain specific language (DSL) intended to describe analog layouts. This paper introduces an LDS based tool, Capture, and an add-on, LDS Analyzer, for LDS. Capture aims to convert layout images into layout templates. Components of a layout are extracted with this tool and a template is synthesized from the extracted data. LDS Analyzer is an enhanced LDS parser. Analyzer investigates an LDS statement and conducts either simple parsing or enhanced parsing which make use of symbolic variables.
