On piecewise-linear approximation of nonlinear mappings containing Gummel-Poon models or Schichman-Hodges models

An effective technique for the piecewise-linear approximation of nonlinear mappings containing Gummel-Poon models or Shichman-Hodges models is presented. The basic idea is to exploit the pairwise-separability of the nonlinear mappings containing these nonseparable models. The proposed approximation is much more effective than the conventional piecewise-linear approximation using a simplicial subdivision.<
