From Netlists to Agents: Closed-Loop Large Language Model Workflows for Analog and Mixed-Signal

Prof. Dr.-Ing. Moustafa Nawito

Moustafa Nawito is Dean of the Faculty of IT & Engineering at IU International University of Applied Sciences, Germany, and founder of Polymath Analog, an analog IC design consultancy in Stuttgart. He received the B.Sc. degree in electronics and electrical communications from Cairo University in 2002, the M.Sc. degree in electronics from the German University in Cairo in 2007 and the Dr.-Ing. degree in microelectronics from the University of Stuttgart in 2017. From 2010 to 2019 he was a research scientist and senior ASIC designer at the Institut für Mikroelektronik Stuttgart (IMS CHIPS), where he developed readout circuits for camera systems, industrial sensors and implantable biosensors. In 2020 he joined IU as professor and founding director of its electrical engineering program. His research covers data converters, integrated impedance spectroscopy and sensor interfaces. His current work focuses on closed-loop design agents that combine large language models with circuit simulation for analog and mixed-signal design. He is an IEEE Senior Member and served as chair of the IEEE SSCS Germany Chapter in 2024 and 2025.
