spice中支持多层次元件模型仿真的可单独运行的插件源码

Some comments on keeping track of where the solution is:

There are 3 places that the internal state variables can be hiding:
 1. In the (psi,n,p) triple of a node (pNode).
 2. In the solution vectors (dcSolution, copiedSolution).
 3. In the state tables (pDevice->devStates[]).

 To access node variables use:
   pNode->psi
   pNode->nConc
   pNode->pConc

 To access solution vectors use:
   solution[ pNode->psiEqn ]
   solution[ pNode->nEqn ]
   solution[ pNode->pEqn ]

 To access state vector X (0,1,etc.) use:
   *(pDevice->devStateX + pNode->nodePsi)
   *(pDevice->devStateX + pNode->nodeN)
   *(pDevice->devStateX + pNode->nodeP)

There are several functions that copy from one form of these
to another:
  storeInitialGuess:  dcSolution <- nodevars
  biasSolve:          nodevars <- dcSolution (DC)
                      state0 <- nodevars <- dcSolution (Transient)
  saveState:          nodevars <- state1 (Transient)

In addition the main device-level Newton iteration copies during
the computation of currents and derivatives:
		      state0 <- dcSolution

and the function predict() does a forward prediction step using
the previous state:
		      nodevars <- predict(state1)  (Transient)
