  • Method and system for performing effective resistance calculation for a network of resistors
    Patent number: 7277804
    Abstract: A method, mechanism, and system for determining an effective resistance for a network of resistors, irrespective of the number of terminals is provided. An aspect of an approach relates to the reduction of any network of resistors to a single resistance value. Another aspect of an approach relates to the application of a power loss calculation to determine the effective resistance. Yet another aspect of an approach relates to the integration of the method/mechanism with an analog simulator.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 20, 2005
    Date of Patent: October 2, 2007
    Assignee: Cadence Design Systems, Inc.
    Inventors: Ian Gebbie, Ian Dennison, Zsolt Haag, Keith Dennison
