| Abstract(in English) | This paper describes analog Evolvable Hardware(EHW)and its applications developed in Electrotechnical Laboratory, mainly concerning analog EHW chips for Intermediate Frequency(IF)filters, which are widely used in cellular phones. The developed chip can correct discrepancies in the values of analog circuit components by genetic algorithms(GAs), which have attained(1)yield rate of 97%(2)60% reduction of the filter area(3)38% reduction of power dissipation, compared with AKM commercial products. When analog LSIs are manufactured, the values of the analog circuit components often very from the precise design specifications. Analog LSIs with such defective components can not perform at required levels and thus have to be discarded. However, using our technique can improve yield rates of analog LSIs and merit from two more advantages, namely:smaller circuits and less power dissipatiuon. This paper also introduces evolvable microwave circuits and EHW-based clock timing architecture. |
