Abstract :
This paper presents a generalized formulation of the periodic steady-state analysis for oscillators. The new formulation finds the value of a circuit parameter that results in a desired oscillation frequency for the circuit. Numerical methods based on the time-domain finite difference and shooting methods, and the frequency-domain harmonic balance method are described. Comparisons with search-based methods demonstrate the efficacy of the new approach.
