9.7 Types of Analysis

For analog circuits, three methods of analysis are commonly used: DC, AC, and transient analysis. DC analysis is used to examine the steady-state operation of a circuit; that is, what the circuit voltages and currents would be if all inputs were held constant for an infinite time. AC analysis (or sinusoidal steady state) examines circuit performance in the frequency domain using phasor analysis. Transient analysis is performed in the time domain and is the most powerful and computationally intensive of the three. For special applications, other methods of analysis are available such as the harmonic-balance method, which is useful for detailed analysis of nonlinear effects in circuits excited by purely periodic signals (like mixers and RF amplifiers).
