Brilliant. I have an ongoing home radio project that would benefit by being able to simulate the real and imaginary parts of the relative permeability to give an idea of frequency roll off and frequency dependent thermal noise due to core losses (imaginary part of u) as a function of different ferrite types (Fair-Rite types 73, 43, 61, 67 etc). To date, I have always created spot models that are a bit contrived but do the job. While this method may have difficulties, this video and the Coilcraft work (I was not aware of this) give me some pointers. Cheers!
Hi FesZ Electronics: I am using the last version of LTspice and when i am simulating the basic inductor magnitud and phase is different from the equivalent circuit using laplace. Is this due to any wrong configuration of the inductor ?
You are doing the internet a service with these videos, honestly I feel like LTSpice or even SPICE is criminally undocumented on the internet. Where do you go to learn SPICE? On the topic of Laplace functions in current sources, I saw one used to simulate flicker noise, cool idea.
Hello Fesz, I am really fascinated by your work, How ever I have a question : what is a constant current source, and why is it used as a load equivalent in a an electrical circuitry design ? Thank you
Hello; The typical "load" would be a resistor but the downside is that the exact current draw is voltage dependent; with the current source, you can force a fixed current regardless of voltage. When using the current source as a load, its important to also tick the "this is an active load" box in the definition, otherwise the source will actually source current back into the circuit, not just draw it.
That's pretty neat!! Thank you FesZ!

Please do a video on the new “FRA” tool in LTSPICE! Seems really important but there is not a lot of good info out there on how to use it
Congrats! Applause!
Wow! Respect! Never thought LTSpice could do that. Not by simply enter the laplace expression like that.

Oh thanks ! everything is clear now, your content is wayyy better than some course in college !
Thank you FesZ
nice
