Abstract
The interreciprocal adjoint network concept is applied to the computer simulation of electronic-circuit noise performance. The method described is extremely efficient, allowing consideration of an arbitrarily large number of uncorrelated noise sources with less effort than for the original small signal a.c. analysis. Because all noise sources may be considered, no a priori assumption need be made as to which noise sources are dominant in a complicated circuit. The method is illustrated with an operational- amplifier example.Keywords
