Abstract :
An approach to the analysis of large circuits based on the use of the large change sensitivity technique applied to decomposed networks is presented. As a result of this approach a simple, compact notation for the solution vector is derived. The method is applicable to nonlinear analogue networks with hierarchical decomposition simulated by inserted ideal switches. A simple illustrative example is given
