Abstract
The resolution of systems of stiff differential equations is required in the transient analysis of a large electronic network simulation. Resultant stability problems and the methods used in solving first order stiff nonlinear differential equations are reviewed. An improved algorithm is presented using BDF formulas given by Brayton et al. IEEE Vol 60 (1972) pp 98–108 and has been implemented in the IMAG electronic circuit simulation program. Reducing computer time has been achieved by controlling the number of Newton iterations, the number of integration steps, and the number of Jacobian matrix evaluations without producing additional errors or instability phenomena. Experimental results are shown.
