Abstract :
A novel accelerated computer oriented procedure, based on the Newton method, is presented to determine the steady-state response of linear networks with internally and/or externally controlled switches. The Jacobian matrix is computed concurrently with the time-domain response for all possible switching times with the initial conditions. The circuit response may be discontinuous and Dirac impulses are permitted at the switching instants. Several examples show the speed and accuracy of the method.<>
