That may well be. IN that case, LTSpice would benefit greatly from being able to import the output of a proper schematic capture tool.
If LTSpice was OpenSource, that could be added in a day of work.
I love LTSpice, but the fact that
1. the software sees very little updates over time
2. it's closed source and all the cool shit that could be added to it by the community won't happen
is really a huge downer.
- Animats 4y agoYou usually use LTSpice only to simulate difficult analog parts of a circuit. Not the whole thing. The important part is the device models that simulate components. Those do get updated as new analog ICs come out. It's finding a good model that's hard. Linear Technology keeps the models updated for their own parts, but you have to look around on the Web for many non-LT parts.
