Abstract :
A genetic algorithm has been applied for the first time to the sample balance method for nonlinear circuit analysis. Results for a circuit containing an ideal diode show this to be a viable approach which does not suffer from the limitations of other techniques for solving sample balance and harmonic balance equations. The algorithm does not require a good initial estimate nor does it need a Jacobian formulation of the circuit equations
