Breakthroughs in the realm of optoelectronic circuits, demonstrating the power of PSPICE software in solving nonlinear equations for advanced electronics.
Software models for Si and GaAs pin photodetectors and other devices are essential in modern electronics and electrical circuits, described by non-linear models with mathematical equations. These models are used for the analysis and simulation of optoelectronic integrated circuits (OEICs). They are fully compatible with PSPICE and other microwave software and written programs. These models can be employed to study the operating characteristics of independent devices and cascaded components in complex OEICs and electronic devices. Furthermore, parametric device dependencies on applied bias, doping density, and wavelength of incident light can be established. More advanced OEICs can be simulated by introducing non-linear modelling for passive and active components, such as waveguide modulators and light-emitting sources/devices. The use of PSPICE circuit simulation and analysis software for the study of optoelectronic devices and circuits is highly valuable in optical electronic courses and laboratories.
Spice2G and PSpice [1]-[3] are simulation programs used by circuit designers to analyse electronic active and passive circuits. PSpice, in particular, offers additional features [4] compared to Spice2G, allowing you to model I-V devices [6] using analogue behaviour modelling. In this design concept, we solve non-linear simultaneous equations of three variables and non-linear trigonometric two-variable simultaneous equations using the PSpice analogue behaviour option.
- Non-linear simultaneous equations of three variables
Consider the following three equations in three variables,
K1.(x1+x2) 2 – K2.x1.x2+ K3.x3=10
K4.x1.x3 +K5. ( x1)2 =4 ….(1)
K6.(x2)2 +K7. 2.(x1+x3) = 12
The following describe Pspice circuit file TABLE I to solve the already mentioned non-linear equations (set 1) in three variables,
