Introduction System analysis is a basic step in system design Computer-Aided analysis or simulation helps in the design of complex systems before the systems are built or manufactured
Four steps of system simulation 1.System modeling, including component and device modeling 2.System equation formulation 3.Equation solution 4.Display and interpretation of solution
Assumption To start, we consider Electric Circuits that are modeled as interconnections of lumped elements (as opposed to distributed elements): Resistors; capacitors; inductors; independent sources. We will not consider the derivation of device models in this course. We will assume that device models are provided. We will concentrate on equation formulation and equation solution techniques.
Circuit equations include two components: Element characteristics Topological equations or how the elements are interconnected
Types of Equations to be Solved Linear equations Nonlinear algebraic equations Differential-algebraic equations Partial differential equations (distributed elements)
Element Characteristics (Chapter 1) Resistors Characterized by an algebraic relation between voltage v and current i (Note the associated reference directions of v and i)
Linear two-terminal resistor (Ohm's Law) v = ri i = gv r, g are constant => time-invariant r(t), g(t) => time-varying
Independent Sources Current Sources Examples: i = 5 A, i = k sin ωt A
Independent Sources Voltage Sources Examples: v = 5 V, v = B cos(ωt + Φ) V Remark: Independent sources are characterized by an algebraic relationship
Note: We will allow a 2-terminal or one-port resistor to be specified as
Linear Multiterminal Resistors i = [G]v, v = [R]i or If G, R, or H are constant matrices, then resistor is time-invariant; if they are functions of time, then resistor is time-variant.
"Controlled" or "Dependent" sources, e.g., i l =αv 2, v 2 =βv l can be considered as part of a two-port representation Example
OR
General form of linear resistor characteristics, including dependent and independent sources is: [G]v + [R]i = s
Examples: 3-Terminal Resistor 2-Port-Resistor
OR Hybrid Representation i 1 = a 11 v 1 + a 12 i 2 + s 1 v 2 = a 21 v 1 + a 22 i 2 + s 2 Matrix Form
Circuit Diagram 3-Terminal Remark: Terminal equations are sufficient. There is no need to represent multiterminal or multiport as interconnection of 2-Terminal elements (see above) 2-Port
Macromodeling (e.g., Op-Amp) Resistive macromodel Relation between voltages and currents at terminals or ports are derived from the internal equations. Internal voltages and currents of macromodel can be computed later, if desired. This leads the Hierarchical Analysis.
Nonlinear Resistors Two terminals i = g(v) voltage-controlled v v i v f(i,v) = 0 v = r(i) current-controlled v
or f ( i, v ) = 0 Multiterminal Nonlinear Resistor or v = r ( i ) i = g ( v ) i and v are vectors
