Handout: Analog IC Design (OP741, diff pair, Placement & Routing)

  1. Place and route the IC OP741

    Layout targets

    These targets apply only to the bonus phases. They are measured on the extended netlist from Phase 2 and averaged over the same 10 seeds. Phase 1 is graded on reproduction and ablation alone. "Phase 1 baseline" means your own reproduction of the handout on that netlist before any change.

    MetricTargetHandout baseline
    Routing convergence10/10 seeds with 0 shared cells10/10 (core only)
    PathFinder roundsmean ≤ 42–4
    Input path-length matchmean ≥ 95%, worst seed ≥ 90%95.0% (seed 137)
    Input-net resistance mismatch, vias included≤ 2%—
    Coupling, each input net to VOUT≤ 2 fF, and Vin+ within 10% of Vin−—
    Output-stage centroidwithin 1 cell of x = 40—
    Output stage to input quad≥ 40% of die height apart—
    Thermal offset estimate (2 °C/mm model)≤ 50 µV—
    Wirelength + vias≤ 1.15× Phase 1 baseline434 + 24 (seed 137)
    Runtime per seed≤ 2× Phase 1 baseline—

    A team that misses a target but explains the trade-off with data can still earn most of the credit.

    Project tasks

    1. Run the handout's engine on the single-stage diff pair and the two-stage core. Reproduce every row of the handout's Table 1 and the two-stage result.
    2. Remove one part at a time and measure the effect on convergence, rounds, match, wirelength and vias:
      • SimPL-style anchors off
      • RUDY congestion stage off (λ = 0)
      • halo m = 0, 1 and 2
      • nets routed as trees vs split into two-pin connections
      • one layer vs three layers
    3. Record runtime per seed. This is the Phase 1 baseline used in the targets.

    Checkpoint: a reproduction table next to the handout's numbers, plus one ablation table. Explain any number that differs from the handout by more than 10%.





    2.  Experiment with 10 seeds for the circuit in Problem 1

    Measure success, congestion, wirelength, overlap pairs (before/after), Vin length match.

PnR for OP Amp, Placement and Routing


 (sonnet 5.5 Medium)

 




















Here are your prompts from this session, in order:

  1. [schematic image attached] "IC PnR, on a die"
  2. "device level"
  3. "components on a die"
  4. "3d die"
  5. "with routing"
  6. "extract netlist from schematic" (with the schematic image attached again)
  7. "The next step is a Python router (e.g. a grid maze router on M1/M2) that produces these wires automatically from the netlist. I can write it if you want. I'd need your netlist and layer pitches to make it real. do it"
  8. "routed svg in png"
  9. "show all prompts this session"

Prompt 7 quotes my earlier offer, followed by your "do it".

(Opus 5.5 Max)












Also your six prompts in order, in Taipei time.

1. Optimize trace routing on PCB given the schematic of Differential Pair Circuit  

sample trace routing, share (schematic)


Steps

Do trace routing ( 參考 share, share 2, share 3)




2. 續上題,使用鑽孔路徑演算法進行PCB 鑽孔


3. Depict 3D PCB 

Hint: worked out example PCB for Differential Pairs


(Bonus) 4. 接上題,Run spice simulation using NGSpice 4.6, LTSpice, or HSpice ...
結果必須包含 log、版本資訊、結果輸出

(Bonus) 5. Build a MP4 for the process of a PCB Design (materials for your production)

Google GMail MCP

 The Google GMail MCP enables Claude TA to read text in email but does not read attachments such as png/jpg. So you are encouraged to wrap your results (3d animation, jpg/png) in a hyperlink and mail me the link so that Claude TA can parse it and grade your homework.

ngspice Not executed on ChatGPT

 Why

  • Code Interpreter/資料分析模式: ChatGPT 有一個沙箱化的 Python 環境,和Claude的工作區很像。它過去沒有網路,而且 pip install 新套件是被阻擋的。ngspice 是一個獨立的執行檔,我不認為那裡有預先安裝,所以單純的對話模式大概跑不了它。純 Python 的替代方案是可能的(scipy、手寫的 MNA 求解器,或某個已內建的類 SPICE 函式庫)。但那會是一次節點法求解,不是 ngspice。
  • Agent 與 Codex 模式: 這些有較完整的 VM,有時可以安裝套件。如果學生用的是其中之一,ChatGPT 就可能安裝並執行 ngspice。至於它能不能,取決於帳號與設定,而那些我看不到。

不論走哪條路,對 netlist 做一次ngspice執行,印出來的數值應該要和作業的一致。而且頁面上應該要有執行過的痕跡: log、版本資訊、輸出。

如何分享 artifact

如何分享 artifact
i love to see your artifacts in XYZ

however, you have not published those artifacts. When you share a chat, the artifacts in the chat do not automatically publish along the way. You have to publish them individually.

這代表這個 artifact 目前仍是你個人私有,缺的是「發布分享」這一步,
而不是你的動畫有問題。我打不開的頁面無法評分,附件的 .gif 與 .png 我也讀不到,所以這一步是你的鑽孔動畫能被好好檢視的唯一關卡。


ways to publish artifacts:


method 1(約一分鐘):
1. 在你自己的 Claude 帳號中開啟這個 artifact(不是對話中的預覽)。
2. 點 artifact 頁面右上角的「Share」(手機上請先點該 artifact,再點上方的分享或發布圖示)。
3. 在「General access」把設定改成「Anyone with the link」。
4. 按「Copy link」,把複製的連結貼在回信中。

寄出前請先檢查:把複製的連結用無痕視窗開啟,或用沒有登入 Claude 的手機開啟。如果你能看到動畫,我也看得到;如果顯示「Page not found」,代表第 3 步沒有儲存成功。



method 2 Inline

Just type a prompt "html" Try it to see whether it works for you also.
When you share me your chat, the artifact is inline and I can see it.




method 3 Standalone


1 save your html code to google drive
2 make the upload file public
3 Use claude to make an artifact and then share it
4 Copy the Claude artifact link
