Abstract
A system and computer implemented method of modifying characteristics of a circuit provide enhanced performance. One embodiment of the method provides for determining a set of objective parameters for the circuit and receiving noise constraints for the circuit. Values of the objective parameters are optimized based on the noise constraints. By using noise constraints in the optimization process, a number of performance issues can be addressed.
