I don't know how dangerous it is, but I couldn't resist caricaturing

Probably because you have not reached the degree of friendliness
where it becomes an affectionate term.
We should celebrate what unites us over what divides

Like Andy, I enjoy the international nature of this group and admire those who contribute, whose native language isn't English of one flavour or another. I wish my language skills were as good as some of those, especially since I now choose to live in a country (yours), where I often struggle with the language. That has never diminished how welcome I feel, and I have never (to my knowledge) been called "rosbif".?
I am currently working in Sweden, and am somewhat in awe of the quality of English spoken by everyone here. I believe proportionally more people speak English here than in some countries where the official language is English. How ironic, therefore, that the largest of the English-speaking nation of Europe is in the throes of choosing isolationism.
We should celebrate what unites us over what divides us.
Just my view.

Re: Edge triggered b-source logic and integrated averaging in LTspice
'Praize' is not correct, it's 'praise', as
opposed to 'prize', which you may have had in mind.
The form '-ize' is 'more correct' for most
words than '-ise', which was invented in the 1920s by British
newspapers.? But English doesn't have many 'rules' for judging
correctness, only thousands of exceptions. This especially
applies to the use and omission of articles. There really aren't
any rules, only usage; I know when an article (or no article) is
wrong, but there is almost never a reason for it being wrong.

Thank
you for the praize, quite the surprise. This would imply my
English is better than I had hoped. I know there are
inconsistencies
such as 'to praize/surprise', etc, but that's mostly because, in
school, I learned British-English, while most of the ...audio

was Hollywoodian in nature, so to speak.

Re: Is it possible to dynamically change a part's location in one simulation ?
You can do it indirectly by putting several
circuits in one .ASC file, with the components in different
positions, and running the .ASC.

Hi, :
It occurred to me, and confused me a while,
typically I hope to dynamically change a part's location
in the schematic of LTspice when I am running
simulation, that means different circuit topologies but
similar, it helps to "batch" those result in one-click
simulation. Like the 'step' directives, but step doesn't
support different topology (part's location).
I never used that, but I think if it's possible,
that would be great.
Actually, more great stuff is the parts (which
change locations) could be changed their 'model', I mean
dynamically change, eg: R -> C, C->L, etc, and the
polarities. Like the '.list' directives, but '.list'
only change the fixed part's intrinsic value.
Though it's almost impossible, but I better ask one
time to get the exact answer. Which maybe I could
inherit something, maybe store it in my mind.
Thank you very much.
Have a nice day!
Best regards.

Re: NAND, INV, CMOS, HCMOS logic series - are there models in LTSPICE?
Hello Christoph,
There is a library with HC and HCT in our group's directory Files > Lib.
Models: 74HCT.lib Symbols: 74HCT.zip
Please although take a look to the examples from this folder.
It's best practice to copy the symbols(.asy) you need to the folder of your schematic. Although copy the file 74HCT.lib into this folder. Please be ware that these models are somewhat idealized. This means they may behave better than the real parts especially regarding output drive capability. ? Best regards, Helmut

If it's a CMOS or the likes you're looking for, there are some libraries in the group's Files area, or, you can always build one from scratch, yourself, with NMOS4 and PMOS4 readily available. -- Vlad ______________________ ltspicegoodies.ltwiki.org -- holding, among others: a universal analog/digital filter, block-level models for power electronics (and not only), math blocks with a more stream-lined approach, some digital ADC, DAC, (synchronous-)counter, JKflop, etc.

Re: Edge triggered b-source logic and integrated averaging in LTspice
You know how to use definite and indefinite articles perfectly, but you
have a Russian name, so you must be either second generation or first
generation (before the age of seven) Russian American. I have worked with
absolutely brilliant Russian and Polish guys in the past who knew English
perfectly except for how to use articles. They always had me review their
otherwise impeccable papers to correct articles before publishing. Thank you for the praize, quite the surprise. This would imply my English is better than I had hoped. I know there are inconsistencies such as 'to praize/surprise', etc, but that's mostly because, in school, I learned British-English, while most of the ...audio training was Hollywoodian in nature, so to speak. However, Andy is right, I am Romanian, and Vlad is a fairly common name here, even if the origins are slavic -- they had the second highest influence in history, from which we got the Orthodox church and the cyrillic alphabet (used up to the 18th century, even if the language was Latin-based). I've never been in the US before, or UK. What do you know of traditional Russian foods? I know praniki is a generic
term, but do you know of the unleavened hard biscuit/cookie that is made
from white flour, sugar and mint? They are like a teething biscuit for
babies. They are better than chocolate. They're called biscuits here and, for my part, the "old" recipes still contribute to higher levels of moisture on my tongue... -- Vlad ______________________ ltspicegoodies.ltwiki.org -- holding, among others: a universal analog/digital filter, block-level models for power electronics (and not only), math blocks with a more stream-lined approach, some digital ADC, DAC, (synchronous-)counter, JKflop, etc.

[...] in my defence [...] I hope I'm not perceived as dismissive of your efforts, I honestly had no intention of that. My apologies if this is how it turned out. On the contrary, seeing that you made the effort to provide such an example, I thought I'd contribute with a suggestion, backed by a minor proof. That's all. It also has the advantage
that it should work with any SPICE. It only uses G+C+R, so this one should also be SPICE friendly. The whole package might not, though. There's AES17_Filter_2.zip in Temp with what I meant. It also includes the 7 design possibilities (that I know of) to serve as a few choices. -- Vlad ______________________ ltspicegoodies.ltwiki.org -- holding, among others: a universal analog/digital filter, block-level models for power electronics (and not only), math blocks with a more stream-lined approach, some digital ADC, DAC, (synchronous-)counter, JKflop, etc.

I thought Russian was a generic term for all people east of Germany, just like Chinese is a generic term for slanted eyes.

Re: encapsulating a long set of spice directives
Ah, Shift-Ctrl-Alt-H works but ONLY for text attached to components (i.e., only for hidden Attributes).? It has no apparent effect on Comments or on SPICE Directives.
Making the Comment or SPICE Directive text hidden, and later visible, moves the text around relative to other components.? So my recommendation is DON'T USE IT.

All the .param and .meas directives can be placed in a text file, and .included. I'm pretty sure that it used to be the case that the netlist parser would not open included files for parameters that were component values, and would throw an error. At some time over the years, this seems to have been fixed - perhaps at the same time parameter scope rules were changed.
The .meas directives are only required after the simulation has run, and it has always been possible to load them from a file. There is even an LTspice UI method hiding under the "File" menu that explicitly does just that:

I had guessed Romanian, not Russian.
If so, his original native language might have been
Romanian.
I love the international nature of this group.?
It's not something I see very often here in USA.
(FYI - in this case, "articles" means a kind of
word, in grammar.? If you don't already know English
grammar, or if you use Google to translate to your own
language, maybe the word "articles" does not translate
correctly.)

Where you end up often depends on where you start. You are right, of course, but in my defence, I started from a physically realisable circuit and optimised it as a simulation tool. It also has the advantage that it should work with any SPICE.
Feel free to offer a more efficient alternative.
