Operating point analysis — determines the dc operating point of the circuit with inductors shorted and capacitors opened. Operating point sweep analysis — determines the values of output variables while one or two specified independent voltage or current source is stepped over; Pole-zero analysis (AC) Small-Signal distortion analysis and ...
The latest stable version is 0.35 from 2006. The latest development snapshot (as of July 2023) is from June 2023 and is usable. It performs nonlinear DC and transient analysis, Fourier analysis, and AC analysis linearized at an operating point. [4] It is fully interactive and command driven. It can also be run in batch mode or as a server.
In 2016, LTspice XVII was released, and is currently the latest version. [6] It is designed to run on 32-bit or 64-bit editions of Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and macOS 10.9+. [2] Summary of major changes from LTspice IV to LTspice XVII are: Add 64-bit executables. [6] Add Unicode characters in schematics, netlists, plot. [6]
List of free analog and digital electronic circuit simulators, available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and comparing against UC Berkeley SPICE. The following table is split into two groups based on whether it has a graphical visual interface or not.
Load lines can be used separately for both DC and AC analysis. The DC load line is the load line of the DC equivalent circuit, defined by reducing the reactive components to zero (replacing capacitors by open circuits and inductors by short circuits). It is used to determine the correct DC operating point, often called the Q point.
Micro-Cap [1] is a SPICE compatible analog/digital circuit simulator with an integrated schematic editor that provides an interactive sketch and simulate environment for electronics engineers. It was developed by Spectrum Software , and was only available with a paid commercial license. [ 2 ]
It is applicable to electronic circuits in which the AC signals (i.e., the time-varying currents and voltages in the circuit) are small relative to the DC bias currents and voltages. A small-signal model is an AC equivalent circuit in which the nonlinear circuit elements are replaced by linear elements whose values are given by the first-order ...
In electronics, it is common to refer to a circuit that is powered by a DC voltage source such as a battery or the output of a DC power supply as a DC circuit even though what is meant is that the circuit is DC powered. In a DC circuit, a power source (e.g. a battery, capacitor, etc.) has a positive and negative terminal, and likewise, the load ...
