Artificial parameter homotopy methods for the DC operating point problem
Efficient and robust computation of one or more of the operating points of a nonlinear circuit is a necessary first step in a circuit simulator. This paper discusses the application of so-called globally convergent probability-one homotopy methods to various systems of nonlinear equations that arise in circuit simulation. The so-called “coercivity conditions” required for such methods are estab...
متن کاملDC operating points of transistor circuits
Finding a circuit’s dc operating points is an essential step in its design and involves solving systems of nonlinear algebraic equations. Of particular research and practical interests are dc analysis and simulation of electronic circuits consisting of bipolar junction and fieldeffect transistors (BJTs and FETs), which are building blocks of modern electronic circuits. In this paper, we survey ...

متن کامل[Invited Paper] An Efficient Algorithm for Finding All DC Solutions of Nonlinear Circuits
An efficient algorithm is proposed for finding all DC solutions of nonlinear (not piecewise-linear) circuits with mathematical certainty. This algorithm is based on interval analysis, the LP test using the dual simplex method, the contraction method, and a special technique which makes the algorithm not require large memory space and not require copying tableaus. By numerical examples, it is sh...
متن کاملFully Distributed Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of an Improved Non-Uniform Traveling Wave Structure
Modeling and simulation of communication circuits at high frequency are important challenges ahead in the design and construction of these circuits. Knowing the fact that the lumped element model is not valid at high frequency, distributed analysis is presented based on active and passive transmission lines theory. In this paper, a lossy transmission line model of traveling wave switch (TWSW) i...
