Abstract :
The variable dimension Newton method (VDNR) is used to solve the DC solutions of various kinds of circuits. The problems encountered and the corresponding solutions are discussed. The simulation results show that the variable dimension Newton method is much robust than the conventional Newton method and those homotopy alternatives used in SPICE3f3
