Re: LTspice vs ngspice 12AU7 tube amplifier transient analysis
BTW,.option Noopiter in LTspice skips Direct Newton-Raphson (NR) iterations to calculate the ITS/DC operating point. Using default settings, LTspice will try Direct NR to calculate the ITS/DC

Re: LTspice vs ngspice 12AU7 tube amplifier transient analysis
We know exactly what ngspice is doing: (reading the source of the intrinsic model implementation, it is the standard DMOS and discrete SPICE diode model but has a thermal output node). According to

Re: LTspice vs ngspice 12AU7 tube amplifier transient analysis
Ok yes, for transient analysis it is supposed to work that way. Therefore, at the end of transient analysis, there will be a total number of iterations done (some associated with ITS calculation and

Re: LTspice vs ngspice 12AU7 tube amplifier transient analysis
I am uncertain what you suggested.? Why would either simulator use a "small signal linear equivalent circuit" for the transient simulation of something which is or might? be nonlinear?? Shouldn't

Re: LTspice vs ngspice 12AU7 tube amplifier transient analysis
FYI, LTspice ignores the first parameter of the .TRAN command.? Therefore, ".tran 100n 10m" is identical to ".tran 0 10m" or ".tran 10m 10m".? In the old days of SPICE, the first parameter was the

No, that doesn't work, either, in any version. With or without a comma between "V(3,4)" & "BC848B_Ic_Vce_400u.inc" the same error results. Doesn't look like the file is being included.
