Abstract :
The use of analog standard cells is becoming increasingly popular for reducing design time of mixed signal integrated circuits. We describe a standard cell methodology used here in the development of a complex mixed signal analog and digital power IC. The IC incorporates four switch-mode power supplies, five high-current full-H Bridges, a computer-generated serial interface layout and a twenty-six channel, eight-bit analog to digital converter
