  • Abstract
    Traditionally, the DC operating points of a nonlinear electronic circuit are found using the Newton-Raphson method, which has known problems. It is not globally convergent; it can frequently diverge; and cannot find multiple solutions in a single pass. We discuss the use of evolutionary algorithms to overcome these problems
