Today electronics becomes more and more complex and to keep low costs and power consumption, both digital and analog parts are implemented on the same chip. The degree of automization for the digital parts have increased fast and is high, but for the analog parts this has not come through. This have created a big gap between the degrees of automization for the two parts and makes the analog parts the bottleneck in electronics develop. Research is ongoing at Electronics systems group at Linköping University target the increase of design automization for analog circuits. An optimizationbased approach for device sizing is developed and for this a good optimization method is needed which can find good solutions and meet the specification parameters. This report contains an evaluation of the optimization method Simulated Annealing. Many test runs have been made to find out good control parameters, both for Adaptiv Simulated Annealing (ASA) and a standard Simulated Annealing method. The result is discussed and all the d...
