content: I stumbled into Circuitlab.com and it seems to have a neat simulator, but it's online only. Anyone used it ? are they other free simulator tools out there that you can download and are intuitive to use (other than LT spice)

content: Quote from: Simon on January 13, 2013, 08:34:03 pmYes, you can create your own circuits. Just right click in the black area of the screen and "Add Wire" or "Add Resistor" or Passives etc.Here is an example of one I made:http://www.falstad.com/circuit/#%24+1+5.0E-6+10.20027730826997+50+5.0+50%0AR+128+256+128+192+0+0+40.0+29.3+0.0+0.0+0.5%0AR+608+256+608+192+0+0+40.0+12.2+0.0+0.0+0.5%0Ag+608+512+608+544+0%0Ag+448+512+448+544+0%0AR+448+256+448+192+0+0+40.0+24.2+0.0+0.0+0.5%0AR+1104+256+1104+192+0+0+40.0+5.3+0.0+0.0+0.5%0AR+928+256+928+192+0+0+40.0+8.2+0.0+0.0+0.5%0Ag+928+512+928+544+0%0Aw+288+224+288+256+0%0Ar+608+368+608+512+0+500.0%0Ar+448+368+448+512+0+500.0%0Ar+1104+368+1104+512+0+500.0%0Ar+928+368+928+512+0+500.0%0Az+608+368+608+256+1+0.805904783+10.21%0Az+448+368+448+256+1+0.805904783+22.21%0Az+1104+368+1104+256+1+0.805904783+3.31%0Az+928+368+928+256+1+0.805904783+6.21%0Az+128+368+128+256+1+0.805904783+24.0%0AR+768+496+768+544+0+0+40.0+5.0+0.0+0.0+0.5%0Ar+768+368+768+496+0+500.0%0AR+768+224+768+192+0+0+40.0+-12.2+0.0+0.0+0.5%0Az+768+224+768+368+1+0.805904783+14.19%0AR+288+224+288+192+0+0+40.0+-29.3+0.0+0.0+0.5%0Ag+1104+512+1104+544+0%0Az+288+256+288+368+1+0.805904783+27.5%0AO+1104+368+1200+368+1%0AO+928+368+1024+368+1%0AO+768+368+864+368+1%0AO+608+368+704+368+1%0AO+448+368+544+368+1%0Ar+128+368+128+448+0+500.0%0Ar+128+448+128+528+0+250.0%0Ag+128+528+128+576+0%0AO+128+448+192+448+1%0Ar+288+368+288+448+0+500.0%0Ar+288+448+288+528+0+300.0%0AR+288+528+288+576+0+0+40.0+5.0+0.0+0.0+0.5%0AO+288+448+352+448+1%0A

content: Like Tina-TI, this isn't a full version, but Analog Devices Inc has a 'free' version of NI's MultiSim. I'm not sure what the limits are.http://www.analog.com/en/amplifier-linear-tools/multisim/topic.htmlAnother one in the online realm ishttp://www.partsim.com/
