Components which show I–V graphs that are not straight lines are non-linear circuit elements. The current through them is not directly proportional to the potential difference across them.

As usual for Circuit VR, we’ll be simulating the designs using LT Spice. Interestingly, LT Spice is made to design power supplies so it has a lot of Linear Technology parts in its library just ...

Instead, it uses diodes or other switching elements to transfer ... of Spice which is well-known circuit simulation software. LT Spice is from Linear Technologies, but they offer it to the ...
