Linear macromodeling techniques are well established for compact dynamical modeling of complex signal and power distribution networks. In this work, we extend applicability of such reduced-order behavioral models to small-signal descriptions of complex circuit blocks typically found in RF or Analog and Mixed/Signal designs. In addition, we include in the models the explicit dependence on one or more design parameters, such as temperature, bias or gain, thus obtaining a multivariate small-signal behavioral macromodeling approach. The main outcome is a major reduction in the runtime required for transient system-level verification, which can be performed directly by simulating the surrogate macromodels rather than full transistor-level circuits. We demonstrate this approach through an Operarional Amplifier circuit block of a commercial 3G transceiver design. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
