Abstract

This paper shows one and two dimensional active linear modeling of cochlear biomechanics using Hspice. The advantage of the Hspice modeling is that the cochlear biomechanics may be implemented into an analog Ie chip. This paper explains in detail how to transform the physical cochlear biomechanics to the electrical circuit model and how to represent the circuit in Hspice code. There are some circuit design rules to make the Hspice code to be executed properly.
