Abstract

Abstract : The Nonlinear Circuit Analysis Program (NCAP) is a circuit analysis code which uses the Volterra approach to solve for the transfer functions and node voltages of nonlinear circuits. To increase the transportability, the code was written in ANSI FORTRAN. The code was revised and documented in a joint effort using both in-house and contracted manpower. This documentation is a result of that effort. The documentation is made up of three volumes: the Engineering Manual, the User's Manual, and the Programmer's Manual. The User's Manual, Volume II, contains a detailed description of the NCAP input language. The description includes the input commands and data requirements. Examples are used throughout the manual to aid the user in understanding the input language.
