Abstract
This work presents an Exponential Variation based Particle Swarm Optimization (EV-PSO) algorithm to improve the convergence rate and find an optimal solution to analog circuit optimization problems in a constrained-driven environment. Existing evolutionary algorithms have a lower convergence rate leading to higher design time. This work introduces two novel parameters, ζ1 and ζ2, into the velocity update equation. These parameters dynamically vary with the number of iterations. The algorithm was implemented on the Python platform. The results have shown that, in comparison to the considered existing methods, the exponential variation of the parameters ζ1 and ζ2 in the proposed algorithms have a larger rate of convergence. The proposed EV-PSO has a convergence rate of 27 iterations, which is 57.8%, 65.38%, and 59.1% better than the conventional PSO, differential evolution (DE) and genetic algorithm (GA) respectively. The typical design obtained from the optimal solution is verified through the simulation using 45-nm CMOS technology. The optimal solution presented in this work meets the desired input specifications within the specified constrained environment.
