Exercises in analog IC eletronics using LTSpice.
1.Download and install LTSPICE from: https://www.analog.com/en/design-center/design-tools-and-calculators/ltspice-simulator.html (registration is not needed, just download))
-
in case you want to keep the original LTSPICE library: rename the old lib directory in ..\Program Files\LTC\LTspiceIV to lib.old (note: this might have an effect on some existing schematics, as the components and symbols are redefined).
-
unpack lib.zip and move the resulting lib-directory with subdirectories like "cmp", "sch" and "sym" to ...\Program Files\LTC\LTspiceIV\lib (double check that cmp has now become ...\Program Files\LTC\LTspiceIV\lib\cmp).
-
Run LTspiceIV, load an exercise, e.g. E0, and push the "Runner" button. You should now get graphs of voltage and currents by clicking in the schematic (click on a node for node voltage; click on a component terminal to get current (pointer changes shape from probe to current loop)). Probably it is hardly needed, but in case of problems read the included PDF-files or other help information. If you get error messages that the component parameters are not found probably you did not copy the lib-directory correctly.
