Synopsis of Circuit Simulation Methods and Algorithms

Circuit Simulation Methods and Algorithms provides a step-by-step theoretical consideration of methods, techniques, and algorithms in an easy-to-understand format. Many illustrations explain more difficult problems and present instructive circuits. This book works on three levels: the simulator-user level for practitioners and students who want to better understand circuit simulators; the basic theoretical level, with examples, dedicated to students and beginning researchers; and, the thorough level for deep insight into circuit simulation based on computer experiments using PSPICE and OPTIMA. Only basic mathematical knowledge, such as matrix algebra, derivatives, and integrals, is presumed.
