Automatiserad konstruktion av analoga förstärkare
The last few decades the development in the field of electronics has been huge. The components performance gets better at the same time as the manufacturing cost decreases. Many of the design moments that have to be done, are done automatically today, but it can get better. Especially for analog circuit design.At Electronic System in Linköpings universitet, research is in progress to develop a tool that can design analog circuits in reasonable time. It means that it has to size the components (transistors, resistances, capacitances etc), so that the circuit can fulfill the performance requirements. An optimization method in conjunction with derived equations for the circuit performance is used to solve this task. The tool is created to design e.g. analog amplifiers. The goal is to decrease the design time and at the same time achieve better circuit performance.This tool has been tested on three different circuits, a power-amplifier, a Nested Miller Compensated amplifier with an active feedback (Active Nested Miller Compensation) and a Nested Miller Compensated amplifier without an active feedback (Nested Miller Compensation). In this report the results from the designing tests are presented.
