In analog integrated circuit design, iterations between electrical and physical syntheses to
counterbalance layout-induced performance degradations should be avoided as much as …

Analog integrated circuit (IC) design highly depends on reasoning, which distinguishes itself
from other areas of IC design. Most of its innovation arises from qualitative reasoning by a …
