Abstract: Going to the system level while considering the impact of process technology is a key issue in today's mixed-signal design. This sessions presents new ideas to deal with this challenge. The first paper presents a new way to estimate yield, inspired by advances in statistical timing analysis. The second paper deals with built-in compensation of process variations. The third paper presents a new divide&conquer approach to response surface modeling for analog blocks. The fourth paper finally shows an integrated approach to structural and parametric analog synthesis.
