A library including the most commonly used basic analog building blocks is defined. Then, circuit partitioning and derivation of the specifications from the circuit-level design requirements are discussed. On this foundation, the basic analog structures are classified as transconductance, load and bias structures. In addition, it is shown that the optimization of circuit performances is possible only at this level. Finally, the recipes for the design of basic analog structures based on the inversion-level methodology are presented.
