For pt.I see ibid., vol.3, no.4, p.2-6 (1981). The static equations are developed and integrated into a design and analysis software system. New state variable formulation for the Gray-Markel and wave filter are presented. Those state-variable forms provide the formulation for comprehensive filter design and analysis software package reported in part III. View full abstract»

A two-dimensional numerical approach for calculating capacitance between two conductors through different dielectrics is developed. The approach uses Laplace's equation in two dimensions to determine potentials on a grid system between the conductors. Equipotential lines are generated using these potentials and curvilinear squares can be formed to construct the flux tubes between the conductors. T... View full abstract»

A circuit model for an existing silicon integrated bipolar junction transistor is exercised to evaluate presently available high frequency circuit performance. The relationship among circuit model and processing parameters are semi-quantitatively explored to offer predictions on the frequency response which can be achieved through realistic device fabrication modifications. A new figure of merit i... View full abstract»
