ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates generally to the field of design automation. More particularly, the present invention relates to a system and method for the modeling of circuit components for use by a simulator. The present invention includes a model of a circuit component having a plurality of properties that depend on at least two variables comprising: a space defined by the two or more variables; a partition of said space comprising a plurality of regions wherein at least two of the properties share said partition; and at least one definition representing at least one of the properties in at least one of the regions.
