Inside SPICE : overcoming the obstacles of circuit simulation / Ron M. Kielkowski

Information About

Here is your chance to get a solid working knowledge of SPICE—the undisputed international standard in circuit simulation software—so that you can produce simulations that are faster, more accurate, and more effective than ever before. Packed with sample circuit simulations that illustrate common problems and their solutions, this in-depth guide shows you how to make simulations faster and more efficient by setting the .OPTION parameters to appropriate values. It also provides step-by-step coverage of how to overcome such stumbling blocks as nonconvergence, numeric integration instabilities, and timestep control errors.
