System and method for circuit simulation based on recurrent neural networks

摘要

According to one embodiment of the present invention a circuit simulator configured to simulate a degraded output of a circuit including a plurality of transistors includes: a behavioral recurrent neural network configured to receive an input waveform and to compute a circuit output waveform; a feature engine configured to model one or more degraded circuit elements in accordance with an aging time, to receive the circuit output waveform and to output a plurality of degraded features; and a physics recurrent neural network configured to receive the plurality of degraded features from the feature engine and to simulate the degraded output of the circuit.
