Is there any standard for exchange of analog IPs?

For my understanding, most of analog IP are specificed for a process only. Exchange IP need re-design and re-layout !

This is true. THis the reason that analog IP are rarely disclosed. It is a technology dependent stuff. If you change from 0.35 to 0.25, you need to change. However, for the high level design, you only need to specify the low level requirement, for example the parameters of transistor or diode. The fab will figure out the right processing and dimesion for this spec.

analog IP

For large scale process, shrink maybe possible, but for 0.25u or below, it is not possible.

Re: analog IP

Maybe you could get analog IP from your Foundry

Re: analog IP

There is an IP exchange service called VCX (virtual component exchange or something).

It is at h**p://www.thevcx.com.

Note- dont go the www.vcx.com as it is a porn site.
