English abstract:
A coupled semiconductor-circuit model
including thermal effects is proposed. The semiconductor
device is modeled by the energy-transport
equations, and the electric circuit is described by
the network equations from modified nodal analysis.
The resulting system of nonlinear partial differential-algebraic
equations is solved using mixed finite elements
in space and the BDF2 method in time. Numerical
results for a frequency multiplier and a clipper circuit
illustrate the thermal effects present in the system.
