Abstract :
The or model of transistors is used to automatically generate and model composite transistors based on four terminal floating or (FTFN). The goal is to generate all the possible composite transistor configurations using or equivalences. An algorithm using C++ was developed, which is applicable to generate composite transistors a with any number of single transistors. Its usefulness is illustrated with two and all-possible two transistor configurations. A list of composite transistors was generated, including well-known ones such as the darlington pair and the cascode configurations.
