Abstract
A method for identifying a value of an unknown circuit component for an analog signal having a known output profile in which a simulation list of the analog circuit is first created including the component with the unknown value. A transfer function for the known output value is then created using a programmed processor and the transfer function is then solved by the processor for the value of the unknown component. For nonlinear circuit components, a linear model is substituted for the nonlinear components prior to creating the simulation list.
