Abstract
A novel method focused on the symbolic computation of noise figures (NF) for MOS transistor (MOST) analog circuits, is presented. In order to improve the computation time, a pure-nodal-analysis (PNA) method is applied by modeling all the circuit elements using the or. To demonstrate the suitability of the proposed method, two illustrative examples are given, where the NF computed using the proposed method, is compared with the simulation results using HSPICE.
