Abstract

In parameter extraction programs, the performance of repeated analyses of linear (or linearized) circuits can be significantly improved by representing the dependence of circuit responses on some parameters in a symbolic form. This symbolic form can then be evaluated very efficiently for different sets of parameter values. An integrated numerical-symbolic parameter extraction program, called FIT-S, has been developed in which all linear circuit analyses can be performed using a symbolic or numerical approach. A comparisons of execution times is presented for extraction of a submicron HEMT's parameters.
