New database simplifies analog circuit design sharing for AI agents

Researchers have developed Analog-DB, an open-source database designed to facilitate the sharing of analog integrated circuit designs. This database utilizes a process-neutral representation and includes reusable testbenches and machine-readable datasheets, allowing designs to be simulated across different process kits. The system supports composable and retargetable circuits through parameterization, enabling AI design agents to discover and reuse them directly. Initial tests show that circuits imported into new kits can meet specifications, and a coding agent successfully sized an operational amplifier core, identifying design defects. AI

IMPACT This database could accelerate AI-driven analog circuit design by providing a standardized and reusable format for designs and testbenches.

    Analog-DB: An Agent-First Analog Integrated Circuit Database, From Blocks to Systems

    arXiv:2609.01286v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Sharing analog integrated circuit designs remains difficult: foundry non-disclosure agreements restrict the process details a design depends on, and the testbenches behind published results are rarely released. We present analog-db,…
