Inside Spice: Overcoming the Obstacles of Circuit Simulation

Written by a veteran SPICE professional, this unique reference goes beyond the basics to tackle the actual problems practicing engineers most commonly encounter while using SPICE or any of the other SPICE-like simulator programs such as HSPICE, PSPICE, ISSPICE, and MICROCAP IV. Packed with sample circuit simulations that clearly illustrate a variety of common problems and their solutions, this in-depth guide provides step-by-step coverage on how to overcome such stumbling blocks as nonconvergence, numeric integration instabilities, and timestep control errors.
