Join Us: Analog Designer's Toolbox (ADT)

The Analog Designer's Toolbox (ADT) is our flagship project, which will change the way every analog IC designer works and every analog IC design course is taught! We believe ADT will be the most important analog EDA tool since the introduction of SPICE, inshaAllah!

ADT is a winner of Egypt's ITIDA TIEC Round 28th StartIT Program!

Do you want to be part of ADT Team?

Background

Despite the exponential advancement in the semiconductor industry in the previous decades, there has been no major change in the analog IC design flow. Analog designers still handcraft their circuits at the transistor level using time-consuming multi-dimensional simulator sweeps; thus, negatively impacting products time-to-market. We propose the Analog Designer’s Toolbox (ADT), an analog design automation tool that addresses the shortcomings of previous and current market offerings. We build on years of research on developing novel techniques for analog IC design automation.
