Automatic synthesis of analog circuits is being extensively studied and layout parasitics are increasingly being considered in the design loop. Layouts are built either through optimization or by instancing a template. In a circuit synthesis loop, the first approach is very expensive in terms of time complexity and the second one may lead low quality layouts. A better methodology will be to combine these approaches. However, a new type of router is required for such a combination; namely, the template router. This paper presents a template router and discusses how routing is coded and how this code is generated using the well known A* Algorithm. |
