Abstract :
The synthesis of electronic circuits on system level offers the possibility to find better locations of the A/D interfaces and to determine parameters like clock rates and bit widths. KANDIS, a tool for (K)construction of mixed ANalog/DIgital Systems, uses a structure-oriented expert system for these tasks. The main idea is the successive construction on functional and algorithmic blocks with different kinds of tools and the permanent exchange of resource limitations with constraint propagation
