Abstract

A method for designing a circuit, particularly having an active component, preferably a high-frequency circuit, wherein: (a) a plurality of load lines is determined at least approximately; (b) a course of a small-signal parameter along each load line is determined at least approximately; (c) a region of each load line is determined as a load line subset, distinguished by a characteristic property dependent on the small-signal parameter; and (d) a large-signal parameter, assigned to the load line, is determined at least approximately from the course of the small-signal parameter within the region.
