LTspice Text list importation

I presume you mean a *netlist*?

I would expect...

.INCLUDE \\Path\\filename

No ;-)

Hi Jim, Why would I want the "netlist"? Sorry to be totally ignorant, but I am, I just downloaded LTspice so I could work with this osc.

It was included in a post (on abse, subject; Bad colpitts osc waveform) as below;

Fun half hour!. Staying with your existing components (nearly), they can be rejigged to give a more predictable Colpitts arrangement. The oscillator output is quite clean at 2Vpp and has about 0.4% distortion. (output source impedance about 500ohms). The following text list is the oscillator diagram in LTspice form.

Ahhhh well, I thought you were a computer bloke.

All you do is select the text that begins with Version 4 and ends when it ends. Then you copy it and then you paste it in your favourite text editor and save it with a .asc extension.

Then LTSpice will open it as an LTspice schematic.

Hello Mike,

Just copy the text into a file with the file name extenson ".asc". Ltspice will treat this file then as a schematic. Maybe you want name it "osc.asc". If this doesn't work for you, send me an email and I will send this schematic file to you.

Best regards, Helmut

You can load (open) the ASCII file directly into LTSpice, and it will generate a schematic. I think you must have the symbols loaded in the library, but if they are all standard symbols it should work fine. I cut and pasted an LTSpice ASCII file into my posts about the MOSFET active power supply filter, as well as my switching boost converter, and people were able to load them and make modifications as suggestions and include them in their replies.
