Abstract :
A circuit analysis method is presented that uses the hierarchical structure of the circuits directly in the numerical calculations. A program based on this method generates Fortran programs for the analysis of linear circuits in the frequency domain. The CPU computing time measured on a set of examples is a quarter of the CPU time used by SPICE
