[BlindMath] BlindMath Digest, Vol 173, Issue 7

[B K]

Hi Santi,

I don't know much about PCB layout, but the good thing about LTspice is 
that it is possible to just write everything in text-based SPICE code. 
The question is how you would look at the output. It's basically like an 
oscilloscope waveform. How would you normally view something like this? 
In principle, SPICE must be able to produce numerical output but it 
might be only in the command line. You need to be able to look at an 
output in graph form, change something in the code, and then look at the 
new output.

I don't know if this was at all helpful, but I wish you the best in this 
course.

Side note: The graphical interface of LTspice on Mac is inferior to 
Windows for sighted users.

Cheers,

Brian
