Therefore, analog parts of mixed-signal circuits easily cause design failures and require the main effort regarding development time and cost. With our rethought generator approach we implemented a large part of a 12-bit DAC (digital-to-analog converter) as reconfigurable analog circuit generator (analog soft IP) for 28 nm FD-SOI. As the result, we reduce analog design time and improve analog circuit design quality. In addition, we improved yield by utilizing the FD-SOI back gate. Ultimately, in contrast to manual analog design, with our approach we gain analog design reuse.enIntelligentIP621004Generator-based design of a 12-Bit DAC soft-IP in 28 nm FD-SOIpresentation
