Summary
Foundational semiconductor integrated circuits (ICs) research provides a core national competitiveness by driving both trillion-dollar economic growth and advances of various transformative technologies. Thus, advancing Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools to enable agile, low-cost, and high-quality development of ICs is a national research priority. While digital ICs have enjoyed mature automated design flows to cope with the need for higher productivity and stronger capabilities, analog ICs have historically relied on manual design processes despite their essential role in ubiquitous ele
