• Abstract summary: We present FuNToM, a functional modeling method for RF circuits. FuNToM leverages the two-port analysis method for modeling multiple topologies using a single main dataset and multiple small datasets. Our results show that for multiple RF circuits, in comparison to the state-of-the-art works, the required training data is reduced by 2.8x - 10.9x.

• Abstract: Automatic synthesis of analog and Radio Frequency (RF) circuits is a trending approach that requires an efficient circuit modeling method. This is due to the expensive cost of running a large number of simulations at each synthesis cycle. Artificial intelligence methods are promising approaches for circuit modeling due to their speed and relative accuracy. However, existing approaches require a large amount of training data, which is still collected using simulation runs. In addition, such approaches collect a whole separate dataset for each circuit topology even if a single element is added or removed. These matters are only exacerbated by the need for post-layout modeling simulations, which take even longer. To alleviate these drawbacks, in this paper, we present FuNToM, a functional modeling method for RF circuits. FuNToM leverages the two-port analysis method for modeling multiple topologies using a single main dataset and multiple small datasets. It also leverages neural networks which have shown promising results in predicting the behavior of circuits. Our results show that for multiple RF circuits, in comparison to the state-of-the-art works, while maintaining the same accuracy, the required training data is reduced by 2.8x - 10.9x. In addition, FuNToM needs 176.8x - 188.6x less time for collecting the training set in post-layout modeling.

  We introduce shortcut models, a family of generative models that use a single network and training phase to produce high-quality samples. Shortcut models condition the network on the current noise level and also on the desired step size, allowing the model to skip ahead in the generation process. Compared to distillation, shortcut models reduce complexity to a single network and training phase and additionally allow varying step budgets at inference time.

  We present a supervised pretraining approach to learn circuit representations that can be adapted to new unseen topologies or unseen prediction tasks. To cope with the variable topological structure of different circuits we describe each circuit as a graph and use graph neural networks (GNNs) to learn node embeddings. We show that pretraining GNNs on prediction of output node voltages can encourage learning representations that can be adapted to new unseen topologies or prediction of new circuit level properties.
