This Letter describes an innovative interactive evolutionary computational tool to optimise robust analogue complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) integrated circuits (ICs), by using genetic algorithm, entitled iMTGSPICE. The main results demonstrate that the iMTGSPICE is able to reduce the optimisation cycle times of designs of robust single-ended single-stage and Miller operational transconductance amplifiers (OTAs) in up to 93.9% in comparison to the non-interactive optimisation process. Moreover, the iMTGSPICE is capable of reducing the influence of the knowledge levels of the analogue CMOS ICs designers (experts and non-experts) to obtain robust potential solutions (maximum error of 0.5% for the Miller OTA).
