Abstract :
In this paper a method for the control of the stability of nonlinear circuits under large-signal conditions, including an analysis of the transient regime, is presented. It is based on the calculation of the conversion matrix, computed both from standard harmonic balance at steady-state large-signal regime and from a transient envelope simulation. This allows the direct design of the passive networks in the circuit for stabilisation.
