LT Spice and Lab Report Preparation


Introduction:
LTspice is a circuit simulation software that allows for a variety of circuit design inputs. LT spice can accept .txt files coded in SPICE, which is the only way to design circuits, that can be read by LTspice, outside of the main program. LTspice has two other internal methods of designing circuits, one using the OP menu and the other using a graphical schematic. The lab follows the design of multiple circuits using the .txt method.

Materials and Methods:
The circuit shown in Figure 1 is coded into a text file using SPICE. LTspice is then used to simulate the circuit and calculate the voltages and currents in the circuit (Table 1). The circuit shown in Figure 1 is built on a bread board; the voltages at each node and the current across each resistor is measured using a multimeter. The circuit in Figure 3 is simulated in LTspice; the voltage at each node and current through each resistor is calculated. The circuit in Figure 4 is simulated in LTspice; the voltage at each node and current through each resistor is calculated. The circuit in Figure 5 is simulated in LTspice; the voltage at each node and current through each resistor is calculated.
