Abstract :
The integration of a synthesis tool for analog circuit in a general design framework is presented. It is based on a schematic editor and uses the graphical interface to visualize results of the synthesis. Main features of the tool are openness to external topologies, technologies (CMOS and BiCMOS) extended characterization capabilities and integration in a general design framework. The synthesis part is done by the program IDAC. The tool is integrated into the design framework UNICAD developed by SGS Thomson
