Barcelona Design was a EDA tool company that tried to automate the design of analog integrated circuit meaning you just give them the specs and they will come up with the schematic , layout within minutes based on computer automation based on a chosen fab process. At first they were successful with smaller analog circuits like folded cascode but when getting to bigger analog blocks like ADC they were not very successful. Big names involved several professors from Stanford university and Miss Hendershen from Barcelona a graduate student from Stanford. Quite high profile when they first started.
