ZEMLIAK, Alexander; RIOS, Eduardo  and  ZEMLIAK, Kirill. One Approach to the Time-Optimal Strategy Formulation for Analog Circuit Design. Comp. y Sist. [online]. 2003, vol.7, n.1, pp.51-65. ISSN 2007-9737.

The formulation of the process of analog system design has been done on the basis of the control theory application. This approach produces many different design strategies inside the same optimization procedure and allows determining the problem of the optimal design strategy existence from the computer time point of view. Different kinds of system design strategies have been evaluated from the operations number. This analysis shows that the traditional approach is not time-optimal at least for the electronic circuit design. General methodology for any analog system design was formulated by means of the optimum control theory. The main equations for this design methodology include the special control functions that are introduced to generalize the design process. The problem of the time-optimal design algorithm construction is defined as the minimal-time problem of the control theory. Numerical results of some nonlinear passive and active electronic circuit design demonstrate the efficiency of the proposed methodology.

Keywords : Time-optimal design strategy; control theory application; minimum-time problem.
