Abstract:Analytical solution to diode-containing circuits has been
investigated for a long time, and many researchers have offered
approximations using the Lambert-W function and numerical/iterative
methods. However, a simple method without complex calculations and
iterations has not been proposed in the literature. This paper proposes
a two-step method to model a diode with the Schottky equation and solve
the diode circuit with the transcendental equations. The proposed method
depends on extracting two fitting coeffic… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
