The AMBEATion Methodology

The main components of the methodology envisioned by AMBEATion are shown below.

AMS Back-End

The AMBEATion project targets the automation and optimization of Analog Mixed-Signal (AMS) integrated circuit design.

Artificial Intelligence

The project's goal is to use Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) techniques to improve AMS design productivity.

EDA

The final result of the project will be a scriptware-based flow, integrated with commercial state-of-the-art Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools.

The AMBEATion project aims at developing new methodologies and software for the Electronic Design Automation (EDA) of Analog-Mixed-Signal (AMS) semiconductor devices. Thanks to the use of Machine Learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI), these methodologies, which will be integrated in state-of-the-art industrial tools and flows, will help in overcoming the productivity limitations of current AMS design.

AMBEATion Consortium

Consortium

The AMBEATion consortium includes three academic partners and two multi-national companies, participating in the project with multiple entities.

Politecnico di Torino

Coordinator

One of the largest technical universities in Italy, Politecnico di Torino (POLITO) coordinates the AMBEATion project, participating in technical activities with the EDA Group, from the Department of Control and Computer Engineering.

České vysoké učení technické v Praze

The Czech Technical University in Prague (CVUT) participates in the project with members of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering (FEE), one of the top 5 research institutions in Czech Republic, thanks to its extensive collaborations with top universities and industrial partners worldwide.

University of Catania

The University of Catania (UNICT), one of the oldest in the southern part of Italy, takes part to the AMBEATION project with members belonging to the groups of applied mathematics and informatics of the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science.

ST Microelectronics

ST creates semiconductor solutions which are integrated into billions of electronic devices people across the globe interact with every day. By getting more from technology to get more from life, ST stands for life.augmented. ST drives its partners innovation by building products, solutions and ecosystems that enable smarter mobility, more efficient power and energy management, and the widescale deployment of the Internet of Things and 5G technology.

Synopsys

Synopsys, Inc. is the Silicon to Software™ partner for innovative companies developing the electronic products and software applications we rely on every day. As an S&P 500 company, Synopsys has a long history of being a global leader in electronic design automation (EDA) and semiconductor IP and offers the industry's broadest portfolio of application security testing tools and services.
