Abstract

A method for generating a layout for an analog circuit design is provided. The method includes tracing a signal flow through a circuit netlist, and partitioning the circuit netlist into a digital portion and an analog portion. A signal flow is defined through the analog portion of the circuit netlist. A system for generating a layout for an analog circuit design is also included.
