Based on the assumption of small parameter variations a sensitivity–based analysis method is proposed for the computation of the steady–state mismatch deviations of periodic and quasi-periodic circuits. Unlike classical Monte-Carlo or worst-case analyses this approach does not require several (time) periodic steady-state analyses to be performed. In addition it provides detailed information on the relative contributions of the different device model parameters. Some numerical examples illustrate the potential and limitations of the approach.
