Audiophiles spend a lot of time and effort worrying about audio specs like Total Harmonic Distortion (THD). Makes sense, because THD affects the quality of audio reproduction. However, THD can also ...

Musicians have a fantastic language to describe signals. A sound can be fat, dark, crunchy, punchy — the list goes on. These aren’t very technical terms, but they get the job done. After all, it’s ...

Did you know that you can use LTspice to do Digital Signal Processing (DSP)? Actually, I should say it is useful for validating the operation of a signal-processing algorithm under development. This ...

Last week I was lucky enough to get tipped off about the last seminar this year for Linear Technology’s free Spice program, LTspice. The seminar was given by the author of the program, Linear Tech ...

Embedded.com Explores How To Make a Bode Plot With LTspice, Frequency Responses, and AC Analysis. Visit Today To Learn More.

LTspice makes it easy to create and simulate schematics quickly. Sometimes the best starting point for hashing out a design is to use ideal circuit elements. However, a circuit designer will need to ...

In recent years, the increasing use of circuit simulation for circuit design has expanded the number of tools being utilized. Among these, LTspice is an attractive option for a range of users, from ...

How to use statistical tools for component tolerance analysis. A look at methods such as Monte Carlo and Gaussian distribution. Simulating a dc-dc converter in LTspice to model closed-loop voltage ...

LTspice has a way to model electromechanical switches, which I have occasionally tried to use to simulate dc-dc converters without all the hassle of setting up mosfets and appropriate driver circuits.

LTspice is equipped with circuit diagram capture and waveform viewer functions that make it possible for designers to check and verify in advance whether the circuit operation has been achieved as ...
