Equation based transient circuit optimization

A computer program product embodied in a non-transitory computer readable medium for circuit evaluation, the computer program product comprising:

• code for obtaining a representation for a circuit wherein the representation describes a plurality of devices and connections between the devices;
• code for importing models for the plurality of devices included in the representation;
• code for identifying N time points of operation for the circuit;
• code for instantiating the circuit N times;
• and
• code for optimizing the circuit simultaneously at the N time points.

A computer system for circuit evaluation comprising:

• a memory which stores instructions;
• one or more processors coupled to the memory wherein the one or more processors are configured to:
• obtain a representation for a circuit wherein the representation describes a plurality of devices and connections between the devices;
• import models for the plurality of devices included in the representation;
• identify N time points of operation for the circuit;
• instantiate the circuit N times;
• and
• optimize the circuit simultaneously at the N time points.
