Abstract :
A technique is presented which uses existing SPICE elements for simulating circuits containing time-dependent element values. An example of a SPICE transient analysis of a circuit having a time-dependent capacitance is presented. The modeling technique is extended to time-dependent resistors and inductors with SPICE subcircuit descriptions given for each element model.
