Integration of Generic Optimisation Algorithms in SPICE
نویسندگان
چکیده
Though rather awkward and limited in its usage, SPICE has been used by several authors solving their various optimisation problems. In this paper we propose how some generic optimisation algorithms can be integrated into SPICE. The implemented program has proven to be an extremely efficient optimisation tool for an experienced circuit designer. It is free of charge available at our web site (http://fides.fe.uni-lj.si/spice/).

New optimising feature in SPICE
The field of optimisation is still not appropriately covered in modern computer programs for circuit analysis as SPICE, which was originally developed at the University of California at Berkeley. The last official release of SPICE was published in 1992 and includes interactive interpreter language called Nutmeg, which is at first glance very convenient for coding optimisation loops. But it turn...
متن کاملOptimisation Methods in SPICE, a Comparison
The field of optimisation is still not appropriately covered in modern computer programs for circuit analysis as SPICE. It was originally developed at the University of California at Berkeley. The last official release of SPICE 3f4 was published in 1992. It has numerous bugs, mainly memory leaks. In order to implement optimisation methods most bugs were tracked down and fixed. Several well-know...
متن کاملOptimisation of Analog Circuits with Spice 3f4
In the paper four approaches of upgrading analog circuits analysis tools (SPICE was used) with optimisation loops are compared. In the first approach the optimisation algorithm is coded in Mathematica, which calls SPICE for every circuit analysis. In the second approach the algorithm is coded in Nutmeg. (Nutmeg is an interpreter designed as a user interface for SPICE, but it has all properties ...
متن کاملData Clustring Using A New CGA(Chaotic-Generic Algorithm) Approach
Clustering is the process of dividing a set of input data into a number of subgroups. The members of each subgroup are similar to each other but different from members of other subgroups. The genetic algorithm has enjoyed many applications in clustering data. One of these applications is the clustering of images. The problem with the earlier methods used in clustering images was in selecting in...
متن کاملImproved Genetic Algorithm in SPICE OPUS for Model Parameter Extraction
SPICE is a widely used tool for simulation of analog circuits. Accurate models of devices are crucial for obtaining realistic results from the simulation. Although SPICE provides circuit designers with built-in models for most widely used devices many devices still must be modelled with subcircuit models in order to achieve sufficient accuracy. The hardest part of creating a SPICE model for a p...
