Nominal DC Analysis

DESIGN PHASE:       analysis
SUB ELEMENT NAME:   nominal dc analysis
VARIABLE NAME:      [HEANOM]
DATE:               REVISION LETTER:    REVISION DATE:  
APPLICABILITY:      all circuits

ACTIVITY:  Adapt net list for Spice to get nominal nodal voltages 
and branch currents and run or calculate by other means. 
Evaluate results and iterate as necessary to get desired results.

OUTPUT:  Nominal dc solution in format suitable for final report.

ALGORITHM:

[HEANOM] =          engineer hours for nominal dc analysis
0.0+                set up time
0.0*                time per part for analysis and evaluation
[PARTS COUNT]       circuit part count
