    I don't like that it force-opens a new window running the sim without me even clicking anything but your link.

    Oops sorry bout that, use this to the main page. The circuit page is just one of many, have a look at some of the Math and Physics Applets, Digital Filters, Fourier Series Applet
    If nothing else just laying out circuits on it is cool.

    Now try this out. Use the File Import command, past the code I exported from the circuit I was working on with Beau, Look at the scope output as it runs the simulation. I would think this would be a graat tool for people to learn and exchange circuit diagrams as they actually work. And you can have many oscilloscopes stacked up.

    Right click on components to change their values, add switches, power, 555 timers, jfets, mosfets, flip flops, etc...
    The pulse generator on the bottom left is set at .6 volts pulse, you have signal generators, batteries, capacitors etc...
    And save your circuit in text format, exchange it in fourms. I have worked with lots of simulator packages and thiis one walks all over lab view that costs hundreds of dollars when it comes to how easy it is to design a working circuit, the graphics and electron flow are serious learning tools.

    Slide the current speed to the right a bit to see the electron flow better with this circuit.


    Very cool.

    metron9,

    Hey my circuit works! scool.gif


    Hmmm.... "Paul Falstad" I've heard that name before.

    Yes and in real life too!

    Well now it's almost 2 am and I think I played with simulation circuits enough for one day.
