  • Abstract
    Platform-based analog design is used to design an analog-to-digital converter reducing power consumption by 26%. This result was achieved by enriching the library of analog components used as the basis of the design with a telescopic operational transconductance amplifier (OTA). We present the way in which the models for this new component necessary to use platform based design can be added quickly and efficiently with the use of analog constraint graphs.
