Re: Beginner's Question re LT Spice and RF Filter Design
It's a pretty simple reason, which looks obvious after you realize it. Your signal source has a 1 (volt) amplitude and 50 ohm source impedance.? It is a Thevenin source, so you've got 1 volt behind

Even better:? Why not read the group's guidelines on the main group webpage. You attempted to paste your schematic file into the message.? Never paste or attach any files into a group message. Andy

Beginner's Question re LT Spice and RF Filter Design
Am designing a low pass filter for the 20m amateur band, code below. (My apologies if this violates group protocol. Advise and I will adhere in the future.) I note that the display shows this model to

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
Simply use six instances of your circuit on single page and modify connection\termination for each individual circuits. Yes, it`s not elegant, but works as simple as hammer. Not sure if some kind of

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
I consider that an odd thing to say. On the one hand, it suggests that his program adds pre-programmed delays which can't be reduced further, without risk of failure. On the other hand, it suggests

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
Is 1 second what LTspice reports in its .log file?? Or is that from looking at a clock on the wall, from start to finish? If it really takes 1 second to run a simulation, then perhaps that is what it

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
Correct. Hmm.? I see some confusion there.? Do you manually write the netlist, or does PyLTSpice write or alter the netlist?? Obviously, if PyLTSpice needs to add .NET commands, it must be writing

1 second is too much for my purposes, and runtime is 1 second whether I use LTspice or PyLTspice? to run the simulaiton

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
Sorry, I see that the author of PyLTSpice does not know how to spell "LTspice". LTspice has no capital "s".? It is spelled "LTspice". PyLTSpice has a capital "S". Humph. Andy

I might be wrong, but I think alan is referring to one of the example schematics that installs on your computer's disk when you install LTspice. ...\examples\Educational\Colpitts.asc Andy

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
LTSpice generates .raw output files, noramlly. I am using PyLTSpice tp prepeare netlist before simulation. I am manually writing the netlist. After simulation, I am gathering .raw files and reading

So -- what files does PyLTspice need to write and read? I still think (from your description) that this is the bottleneck. Andy

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
No, I am not using .MEAS commands. I tried using some mechanisms that reduced filesize for .raw files, but results remained the same.

Re: Simulating Using PyLTSpice Takes Too Long
As far as I know, file reading and writing are part of the reported simulation time. You might affect that by controlling where it accesses those files, and how big they can be. Andy
