system of two equations (Read 61 times)

littlenasboy New Member Offline Posts: 6	system of two equations Feb 19^th, 2009, 1:47pm I'm working on a double gate mosfet model, and I need to solve the two equations for the potential at the top and back surface of the device. Is there a slick way to solve a system of two non-linear equations in verilog-a...like letting the circuit simulator do the work or a built in function?

The language reference manual suggests using indirect contributions, see "Multiple indirect contributions" in Section 5.6.7.1 of LRM 2.3.

V(x): ddt(V(x)) == f(V(x), V(y), V(z));
V(y): ddt(V(y)) == g(V(x), V(y), V(z));
V(z): ddt(V(z)) == h(V(x), V(y), V(z));

I've never used this in any simulator, so I don't know how well any of them do at using this feature.

If at first you do succeed, STOP, raise your standards, and stop wasting your time.
