  • Abstract
    A flexible and efficient method for analog circuit partitioning and transistor stacking is presented. The method is based on a novel algorithm dealing with analog specific constraints and on a set of heuristics for stack generation using a pattern database. An enhanced set of stacks is obtained with respect to placement constraints. Experimental results show the effectiveness of the methods described
