Abstract :
The automated synthesis of the analog electronic circuit, including both the topology and the numerical values for each of the circuit´s component, is recognized as a difficult problem. This problem is aggregating considerably when the size of a circuit and the number of its input/output pins increases. In this paper for the first time the method of automated synthesis of the analog electronic circuit by mean of evolution is applied to the synthesis of a multi-output circuit, namely 8-output voltage distributor, that distributes the incoming voltage signal among the outputs in filter-like mode. Using the substructure reuse, dynamic fitness function and incremental evolution techniques the largest analogue circuit has been evolved in the area that has 138 components.
