Example circuits will be simulated to demonstrate the capabilities of LTspice. Introduction: LTspice is a fully-functional, freely-available circuit simulator. Linear Technology, Inc. originally designed it so engineers could simulate their switching power supply controller integrated circuits. It is an excellent SPICE simulator, rivaling costly commercial products like Electronic Workbench and PSpice. Some important advantages to LTspice are that it is free, circuit sizes are unlimited, it is very easy to add new models, and the user can easily modify the simulator's behavior. However, PSpice and Electronic Workbench have other advantages and are better at mixed analog/digital circuits than LTspice.
