"Good layout is the difference between a theory and a working instrument."
: Insights into MOS transistors, floating gate devices (EPROM/EEPROM), and the effects of variations in layout geometries on silicon performance. Amazon.com Digital and Portable Access the art of analog layout by alan hastings portable
To address these challenges, analog layout designers use a range of techniques, including: "Good layout is the difference between a theory
Analog circuits often fail due to subtle layout choices—not schematic errors. Hastings stresses that layout is a creative, iterative process. For example: floating gate devices (EPROM/EEPROM)
"Good layout is the difference between a theory and a working instrument."
From guard rings to substrate ties, Hastings outlines how to protect sensitive analog signals from the "noisy" digital blocks sharing the same die. The Quest for "Portable" Analog Layout
