Efficient Reordering for Direct Methods in Analog Circuit Simulation
نویسندگان
چکیده
For linear systems of equations arising from circuit simulation, we studied the efficiency of the reordering algorithm integrated in the MA27 subroutine package from Duff and Reid. Our conclusion is that the algorithm performs extraordinarily well, provided that the nearly-dense rows and columns of the matrix have been removed prior to reordering. Thus, we recommend the reordering implementation of Duff and Reid for circuit simulation. The reordering times of typical industrial examples confirm this recommendation.

Modeling and Simulation of Substrate Noise in Mixed-Signal Circuits Applied to a Special VCO
The mixed-signal circuits with both analog and digital blocks on a single chip have wide applications in communication and RF circuits. Integrating these two blocks can cause serious problems especially in applications requiring fast digital circuits and high performance analog blocks. Fast switching in digital blocks generates a noise which can be introduced to analog circuits by the common su...
