Re: OPA square wave generator, single supply OPA is not working
wai wai, I have edited your message to remove the nonsense schematic that you attached to your message. *DON'T EVER DO THAT!* Go back and read (actually *read!* ) the instructions about using this

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
@Andy I have done the three modifications ( /g/LTspice/files/Temp/ck_osc_operating_point_check.zip ) as per your valuable advices. May I ask how to resolve the issue for floating node

Re: OPA square wave generator, single supply OPA is not working
Please don't post such long netlists. Few of us will try to help using a netlist. Upload your .ASC file AND all the other files required to run the simulation, but not .RAW? and .LOG files or

OPA square wave generator, single supply OPA is not working
LT1006 was a single supply OPA. Trying and gathered no output when single supply was used. welcome any hints or experience would be share, thanks. the code used, *[Mod note:? schematic code deleted]*

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
"Safe"?? I don't know, it depends on one's definition of "safe". Accurate?? Probably not.? Any time you omit something that you know about, or change a value from what it ought to be, it degrades

Re: LTspice24 windows version run on macOS

That's because homebrew uses a different installation location on Apple Silicon Macs that it does on Intel Macs. You are using an Apple Silica Mac and I posted instructions based on my old Intel iMac.

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
@Andy Your advices are valuable and very useful !!! ? Thanks !!! Got it, noted. I will swap the order and get back to you tomorrow with a corrected circuit. I will double check these and get back to

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
That is a *huge* change! The fact that you moved the ground is insignificant.? It just shifts the voltages.? But you are no longer powering the "VN" net with a voltage source that had the polarity

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
Did you check the DC conditions on your circuit? Is it biassed correctly? What gain do you get from each inverter? Make one step at a time. To help you (and anyone else following) along the way, I

Dennis, thank you much for this detailed install guide! My Wine application wound up being installed in /opt/homebrew/bin/ instead of /usr/local/bin/, but that might be because of how I installed

Re: Using Op Amp as comparator
*SUCCESS.* Big thanks again.? Changing the MAX9095 power supply to 6 VDC did the trick.? Note the extra parts for hysteresis, per the datasheet. Thanks for the suggestions.? I've heard the

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
You (Cheng Fei Phung) seem to be grasping at straws with pretty minimal understanding. In your situation, I would disconnect the "crystal" and feed a small transient 1.1MHz signal (say a hundred mV

Re: Crystal oscillator oscillation startup
I see you added a simple RLC series resonant circuit to represent a crystal.? Do you know that it is an appropriate model?? Does this oscillator circuit depend on series resonance, or parallel?? (I

Re: Using Op Amp as comparator
I recommend not using numbers like ".002".? Leading decimal points are easily missed.? To my old eyes, it looked like you wrote "002" - until I squinted. Instead, use one of these: * 0.002 * 2m *

Re: Using Op Amp as comparator
(1)? You do not need to add a library file.? It is included when you use its symbol. (2)? I just tried it, and it works great for me! So, what did you do wrong, that makes your simulation fail??

Re: Using Op Amp as comparator
The 9095 is a quad. Are you using all four units or what? Why not upload your .ASC, so we can see what you are doing? -- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG antivirus software. www.avg.com

Re: Using Op Amp as comparator
FWIW, the LT1017 comparator also works with simple substitution.? I have what I need for now, although I'm curious why the MAX9095 doesn't work.
