The synthesis of analog circuits assuming a hypothetical intrinsic evolutionary integrated hardware platform containing only CMOS transistors is examined. It is shown that to efficiently synthesize analog circuits both topology and transistors sizing should be treated separately. To this end a flexible chromosome coding scheme able to generate the most common analog building blocks and the inclusion in the genetic algorithm of a separate transistor sizing step are proposed.
