  • Abstract
    The DC analysis of generic nonlinear circuits is of great interest also for dynamic circuits. Two problems are very important: search for all DC solutions and DC characterization of one-port, and, in general, multi-port subnetworks. A set-theoretical approach allows one to introduce these problems in a unified way, leading to the formulation of an analysis algorithm based on linear-programming techniques.
