How to: Getting Started with LTspice


https://www.electronics-lab.com/how-to-getting-started-with-ltspice/

LTspice is powerful electronic circuit simulator software and it is free. Probably because it is free, not too much effort has been put into its user interface. Even though it is perfectly capable of what it is designed for, it does not look pretty and lacks user-friendliness. But with a bit of effort, it can […]
