Abstract :
The advantages and capabilities of module generators in the design of primitive analog circuit blocks have been previously demonstrated. The authors propose a framework for a knowledge-based design system which incorporates these module generators to develop higher-level functional blocks. They explore the viability of these concepts on a system that uses resistor- and op amp-generators
