Abstract
The flexible architecture approach to expert system-based analog IC designs is presented. The self-reconstructing technique which uses circuit primitives as replacement parts in a design is described. The expert system employed is capable of making intelligent initial choice among circuits of fixed architecture as well as reconstructing the selected circuit to better satisfy a given set of performance specifications. Software implementation and experimental results are shown to demonstrate the powerfulness of the approach.
