Abstract

An automated technique to narrow down the number of parameters for linear constraint transformation models of analog circuits is described. The sets of more important circuit parameters and specifications are confined in an efficient constraint transformation model. The method is based on least square approximation and principal component analysis of the sensitivity matrix of the transformation. The resulting model encompass the constraints confined using designers' expertize for approximated circuit calculations.
