| Abstract(in English) | Finding DC operating points of transistor circuits is a very important and difficult task. The Newton-Raphson methods employed in SPICE-like simulators often fails to converge to a solution. To overcome this non-convergence problem, homotopy methods have been studied from various viewpoints. However, most of these efforts in conventional homotopy methods are mainly focused on the DC solutions of bipolar transistor circuits. In this paper, a homotopy method for solving MOS transistor circuits by using a nonlinear auxiliary function is proposed. Moreover, numerical examples are demonstrated to show that our proposed method is more efficient compared with the conventional homotopy method. |
