2 Outline What`s Behind nalog? Evolution Substrate custom made configurable transistor array (FPT) Ways to Go Tackling Real-World Problems one analog circuit one fitness value? understanding evolved circuits finding new design principles achievement or information aim or desire

3 What s Behind nalog? CMOS Transistor Basics 1. Behavioral (model) 2. Symbolic view (schematic) 3. Data structure (SPICE netlist).subckt evocir m modp l=1u w=12u m modn l=1u w=5u.ends

4 What s Behind nalog? CMOS Transistor Basics 4. Physical representation (layout) B S G D D G S B p+ n+ p-substrate SiO 2 SiO 2 n+ p+ n-channel p-channel W W p+ n-well L L 4. Physical representation (motifs)

5 Building a Programmable Transistor transistor configuration: length is programmed by selecting the according row width is varied by enabling combinations of parallel transistors (columns) selectable W/L ratio: (1/ /0.6)

6 Parasitics of the FPT Cell Programmability comes at the cost of parasitic effects!

7 Characteristics of the FPT Bandwidth & Total Harmonic Distortion (measured using a sine-wave accross the chip, so it s effectively faster) Only routing resources are used!

8 Characteristics of the FPT Characteristics of the programmable transistors compared with a single transistor of corresponding size 900 PMOS output characteristics W = 1,2,4,8,15 um, L = 2 um, -Vgs = 4 V Id [u] Vds [V]

9 Configuration Options of the FPT routing capabilities: interconnect outer cell nodes N,S,W,E transistor configuration: selectable W/L ratio: (1/8.. 15/0.6) connect terminals to N,S,W,E,Vdd,Gnd 16x16 transistor cells: PMOS & NMOS W N E 2/1 3/1 16/1 S 1/2 2/2 3/2 1/3 2/3 3/3 I/O via the border cells test patterns consist of sample voltages 1/16 16/16
