Abstract

Techniques designing an electronic circuit system including multiple transistors and passive components are presented. According to one aspect of the techniques, some or all of the transistors and passive components are systematically adjusted to minimize artifacts resulting from system-level interactions among these functional building blocks. The adjustment is based on a ratio of Electrically Equivalent Channel Geometry (EECG) of each of the adjusted the transistors and passive components.
