Large Signal Analysis and architecture patterns in analog design.

Abstract

Abstract: Design patterns inspired from the field of architecture, have a strong presence in software engineering, with the leading contribution by the gang of four, circuit design lacks formal architectural definitions and design patterns, definitions, although, BEAM or MFA I design has a modular design structure with design patterns. In this paper we introduce a Tensor definition for architectural patterns, with a stability analysis of large signal behaviour, leading to definitions of associative memory, state diagrams and digital architectural paradigms in analog design. In future work, we design natural language like grammars to tensor representations in a formal complexity theory of Lie Computability and monotonic functions. Keywords: design patterns, structural, functional, behavioural, architecture, analog design, design thinking, constructivism, BEAM robotics, gestalt. What: Structural and Functional architectural patterns in analog design, with small signal and large signal analysis in analog design, illustrated with Nv neuron architectures. How: Reconfigurable design blocks for op amps and BJT/FETs are explored with reconfigurable control buses, and complex impedances, a combination of capacitive, inductive and resistive elements, all amenable to low scale integrated design as FlexICs. With this modular core for use in reconfigurable BEAM robotics, as an illustration of the use of design patterns.
