  • Abstract
    A method to test and calibrate linear circuits is proposed. A tested circuit is partitioned at nodes where the voltage measurements are taken. Test equations are formulated on the basis of Kirchoff´s current law equations at the partition points. This results in the Jacobian matrix with a sparse block structure. The test points selection and the element evaluation can be performed in parallel, reducing computation time and enhancing the test performance.<>
