Abstract

A method, system, and computer program product for circuit design automation. The method identifies a set of circuit components for a proposed circuit design. A subset of circuit components is selected to generate an initial topology for the proposed circuit design. A set of subsequent topologies are iteratively generated by a heuristic search algorithm based on the subset of circuit components and the initial topology. A set of valid topologies of the set of subsequent topologies are determined by a circuit simulator based on the subset of circuit components and a set of connections within the set of subsequent topologies. The method generates the proposed circuit design from the set of valid topologies.
