  • Analog layout foundation model; carbon nanotube sandpaper; low-power optical amplifier. Researchers from Pohang University of Science and Technology (POSTECH) built a foundation model for automated analog circuit layout. The team used a self-supervised learning approach, in which the model learns without human-provided labels. To counter a lack of available training data, the team divided analog layouts into small patches, masked part of each layout, and trained the model to predict the missing layout elements. This enabled the researchers to generate about 320,000 training samples from six re
