Abstract
In precision circuits validating the performance in the presence of low-frequency noise is particularly challenging especially at transistor level, as long simulations are required to observe the low frequency performance. However, running such system-level simulations is rarely practical at transistor level as these simulations can take days to weeks to complete. This work presents a high-level model in Python for generating low-frequency noise which can be used for validating the low-frequency performance of a design in a timely manner. Simulation times can be reduced from days to minutes, enabling designers to achieve a high-level simulation coverage. With Python and NumPy this can be achieved using open-source software tools at no cost.
