利用机器学习自动化模拟与射频(RF)电路设计,可显著减少参数优化的时间和人力成本。本研究探索了多种监督学习方法,从性能规格中推导不同电路类型(包括同质与异质设计)的电路参数。通过评估神经网络(如Transformer)和传统方法(如随机森林),我们为各类电路识别出最优模型。结果表明,低噪声放大器等简单电路因参数-性能关系近似线性,平均相对误差低至0.3%;而功率放大器、压控振荡器等复杂电路因非线性交互和更大设计空间,优化难度更高。对于异构电路,增加训练数据可使误差降低88%,接收机平均相对误差低至0.23%,验证了方法的可扩展性与高精度。此外,变压器模型在捕捉非线性映射上表现优异,k近邻算法在中等线性空间中更稳健,尤其在大数据量下适用于异构电路。本工作为构建高效、可扩展的ML驱动设计自动化流程奠定基础。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Automating analog and radio-frequency (RF) circuit design using machine learning (ML) significantly reduces the time and effort required for parameter optimization. This study explores supervised ML-based approaches for designing circuit parameters from performance specifications across various circuit types, including homogeneous and heterogeneous designs. By evaluating diverse ML models, from neural networks like transformers to traditional methods like random forests, we identify the best-performing models for each circuit. Our results show that simpler circuits, such as low-noise amplifiers, achieve exceptional accuracy with mean relative errors as low as 0.3% due to their linear parameter-performance relationships. In contrast, complex circuits, like power amplifiers and voltage-controlled oscillators, present challenges due to their non-linear interactions and larger design spaces. For heterogeneous circuits, our approach achieves an 88% reduction in errors with increased training data, with the receiver achieving a mean relative error as low as 0.23%, showcasing the scalability and accuracy of the proposed methodology. Additionally, we provide insights into model strengths, with transformers excelling in capturing non-linear mappings and k-nearest neighbors performing robustly in moderately linear parameter spaces, especially in heterogeneous circuits with larger datasets. This work establishes a foundation for extending ML-driven design automation, enabling more efficient and scalable circuit design workflows.
