An Introduction to Circuit Simulation LTspice, developed by Analog Devices, is a powerful, fast, and free SPICE simulator, schematic capture, and waveform viewer with a large database of components supported by SPICE models from all over the world. Drawing a schematic in LTspice is easy and fast. Thanks to its powerful graphing features, you can visualize the voltages and currents in a circuit, and also the power consumption of its components and much more. This book is about learning to design and simulate electronic circuits using LTspice. Among others, the following topics are treated: DC and AC circuits Signal diodes and Zener diodes Transistor circuits including oscillators Thyristor/SCR, diac, and triac circuits Operational amplifier circuits including oscillators The 555 timer IC Filters Voltage regulators Optocouplers Waveform generation Digital logic simulation including the 74HC family SPICE modeling LTspice is a powerful electronic circuit simulation tool with many features and possibilities. Covering them all in detail is not possible in a book of this size. Therefore, this book presents the most common topics like DC and AC circuit analysis, parameter sweeping, transfer functions, oscillators, graphing, etc. Although this book is an introduction to LTspice, it covers most topics of interest to people engaged in electronic circuit simulation. The book is aimed at electronic/electrical engineers, students, teachers, and hobbyists. Many tested simulation examples are given in the book. Readers do not need to have any computer programming skills, but it will help if they are familiar with basic electronic circuit design and operation principles. Readers who want to dive deeper can find many detailed tutorials, articles, videos, design files, and SPICE circuit models on the Internet. All the simulation examples used in the book are available as files at the webpage of this book. Readers can use these example circuits for learning or modify them for their own applications.

Dieses Buch enthält eine Sammlung von Artikeln aus der Zeitschrift Elektor zum Thema „Audiotechnik". Die vorgestellten Schaltungen beschäftigen sich nicht nur mit der Klangwiedergabe, sondern beginnen dort, wo hörenswerte Aufnahmen ihren Ursprung haben: beim bezahlbaren und anspruchsvollen Mikrofon-Vorverstärker. Es folgen u. a. Endstufen, Ergänzungen zu Soundkarten und nicht zuletzt Boxen-Bauvorschläge. Dabei kommt die Theorie nur soweit zu Wort, wie sie für das Verständnis erforderlich ist. Schnell folgt alles, was zur Verwirklichung der Idee notwendig ist: genaue Baupläne mit Platinenlayout, Stückliste und Bestückungsplan, Aufbauanleitung, Beschaffungshinweise für schwer erhältliche Bauteile, Abgleichhinweise usw. Ein Leistungsverstärker, der genügend Power für Veranstaltungssäle, Diskos und Theater bietet, rundet das Angebot ab. Um die Bauvorhaben erfolgreich zu realisieren, sollten einige Grundkenntnisse im Aufbau elektronischer Schaltungen und – noch wichtiger – etwas Übung im praktischen Aufbau und im Löten vorhanden sein.

Niemand twijfelt er aan dat buizenversterkers een opmerkelijk mooi geluid produceren. Ze klinken levendig, diep en doortekend; het klankbeeld is zeer aangenaam en dynamisch schijnen ze nagenoeg geen beperkingen te kennen.Via een systematisch theoretisch onderzoek gaat de auteur na waardoor deze fraaie eigenschappen ontstaan. Hij ontwikkelt nieuwe modellen voor versterkerbuizen en transformatoren, waardoor het mogelijk wordt om op voorhand, tijdens het ontwerp, al te bepalen wat de eigenschappen van de buizenversterker worden. De koppeling tussen eindbuizen en de uitgangstransformator wordt diepgaand gemodelleerd. Daarbij ontstaan nieuwe inzichten in een uitzonderlijk soort vervorming: de dynamische dempingsfactor vervorming (DDFD). Via rekenmodellen in het complexe domein worden vooral de eigenschappen in de grenzen van het hoorbare gebied (tussen 20 Hz en 20 kHz) onderzocht en ontstaan stabiliteitsvoorwaarden waar de versterker minstens aan moet voldoen. In versterkers wordt vaak tegenkoppeling toegepast, die uitgebreid wordt gemodelleerd en waarvan de gehoorsmatige gevolgen diepgaand worden besproken.Vervolgens wordt een fraaie selectie van bijzondere buizenversterkers besproken. Kenmerkend in dit boek is dat de auteur niet alleen technisch schrijft, maar verhalend laat zien dat het ontwikkelen van buizenversterkers ook ingrijpt in je dagelijkse leven; zelfs het nut van patenten wordt besproken. Samenvattend: nieuwe theorieën en oplossingen voor een perfecte audiokwaliteit met buizenversterkers. Zowel de zelfbouwer als diegene die kennis en inzicht wil verwerven zal dit boek met plezier ter hand nemen.

Das Interesse an Röhrenschaltungen ist wach... Gerade im Audiosektor gibt es nach wie vor eine beträchtliche Gruppe ernstzunehmender Fachleute (darunter viele Musiker), die von der klanglichen Überlegenheit neuer und auch alter Röhrentechnologie überzeugt sind. Röhrenverstärker – chromblitzende, z.T. äußerlich ungewöhnlich gestylte Geräte, in denen nicht nur viel elektronisches, mindestens genauso viel handwerkliches Know How steckt – sind für sie "State of the Art" der Klangreproduktion. Wer's nicht glaubt: ein Gang über diverse Audio-Messen ("High-End") überzeugt; sowohl einige der renommierten Großanbieter deutscher, amerikanischer und japanischer Provinienz als auch kleine (aber feine) Firmen bieten Röhrenverstärker. Exzellente, in Handarbeit gefertigte Geräte, seien optisch und klanglich, davon sind Röhrenanhänger fest überzeugt, selbst durch transistorisierte "High-Ender" nun einmal nicht zu schlagen. Alles hat seine Geschichte... Die Grundlagen moderner Reproduktionstechnik, das gilt für beide Verstärkertypen gleichermaßen, reichen mittlerweile rund sechzig bis siebzig Jahre zurück in die Zeit, als die Entwicklung und der Einsatz der ersten Kinoverstärker mit dem Aufkommen des Tonfilms realisiert wurden. Wichtige Impulse gab dabei die Vervollkommnung der Aufnahme- und Wiedergabewandler für die Verstärker, die möglichst verzerrungsarm (oder besser das, was man damals darunter verstand) ein relativ breites Frequenzband verarbeiten mussten. Auf der Suche nach Perfektion waren die 40er- und 50er-Jahre besonders bedeutsam: in dieser Zeit wurden Forderungen formuliert und Standards gesetzt, auf denen letztlich unsere modernen Qualitätsanforderungen im Audiobereich basieren. Dieses Buch wirft einen Blick mit den Schwerpunkten Erfindung der Elektronenröhre Entwicklung der Röhren-Audiotechnik und einer kommentierten Schaltungsdokumentation auf eben diese Geschichte der Reproduktionstechnik in der Röhrenära.
