Abstract
SUGAR is a program for fast transient simulation of MOS circuits The paper describes the extension to the algorithm to handle bipolar and BiCMOS circuits. The authors believe that SUGAR is the first event driven circuit simulator which successfully simulates bipolar circuits. The algorithm uses both dynamic and static circuit partitioning to identify closely coupled nodes, and performs simultaneous equation solutions on the coupled nodes. A number of other extensions have been made to the algorithm to facilitate BJT simulations.Keywords
