[sdiy] Getting started with Spice simulation

[Dave Manley]

Dual boot your Mac?

LTSpice is a very nice package, with built in editor and plotting and the ability to read/write audio files.  There are a bunch of examples included that provide a simple way to basic spice enlightenment - just browse into one of those directories, give it a run and then start mangling things to see what happens to either the time domain or frequency response as appropriate.

The keyboard short cuts for basic editing (using Function keys) are minimal and easy to learn.
