Resumen

The design of analog computing systems requires significant human resources and domain expertise due to the lack of automation tools to enable these highly energy-efficient, high-performance computing nodes. This work presents the first automated tool flow from a high-level representation to a reconfigurable physical device. This tool begins with a high-level algorithmic description, utilizing either our custom Python framework or the XCOS GUI, to compile and optimize computations for integration into an Integrated Circuit (IC) design or a Field Programmable Analog Array (FPAA). An energy-efficient embedded speech classifier benchmark illustrates the tool demonstration, automatically generating GDSII layout or FPAA switch list targeting.
