Abstract
In this paper, a new technique to improve the convergency characteristics of relaxation-based methods for circuit simulations is presented. The technique may overcome the difficulty of slow convergence or non-convergence characteristics of relaxation-based circuit simulation methods when a circuit contains strongly coupled components or feedback loops. Two numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of the technique
