Can AI replace the RF/analog engineer?

,

Here’s the problem with RF/analog design:

  • It requires a niche set of engineering skills
  • It takes forever to develop the “intuition” required
  • It requires iteration, mistakes, and repetition
  • Analog blocks need to be redesigned for every tech node

What if we can use modern “intelligence” tools to greatly accelerate the design to 80%+, and then allow human intuition to take over?

  • Provide a set of specifications. Have AI generate a working design
  • Make layouts “correct-by-design”
  • Automatically pass DRC/LVS and include parasitics
  • Use AI to “port” designs from one tech node to another
