Abstract :
A numerical method is proposed to calculate the steady-state response of nonlinear circuits with periodic excitation, such as large signal amplifiers or frequency doublers. It enables the system of discrete equations to be formulated in the time domain and thus has the advantage, as compared to the harmonic balance technique, of handling nonlinearities in a simple way.
