Abstract :
A generalized approach for asymptotic waveform evaluation (AWE) analyses of circuits containing floating nodes is described. Charge conservation is used to resolve the moment values at the floating nodes. The handling and the implications of nonequilibrium initial conditions for paths which contain floating nodes are discussed
