  • Abstract
    A practical method of analyzing multi-valued DC characteristic curves of non-linear circuits is proposed. In this method, the characteristic curves can easily be traced by executing TRAN analysis with a conventional general-purpose circuit simulator. Some numerical examples including a bipolar analog 1C are also presented to demonstrate the effectiveness of this method.
