Another LTSpice Bug

curiously the bug is identical as in the LTspiceIV v. 4.23l as also in the LTspiceXVII v. XVII

Late update : a Yahoo group discussion log - copy -- basically it turned out to be an exceptional.. (in practice but) trivial (by functionality described in "documentation" ← if there is such) ..behaviour of the LTSpice simulation engine . . . where the simulator can't decide whether there is any activity in circuit (although it is obvious for human that there is . . . insane -- but there are even more stupid "computer bugs" in IT -- it's just "another one such" . . .)

the Actual/Built LED verifier

as i was not about to build a PCB for this the sot-jFets were not used . . .

Spice design ::

Real build ::

Couple of new CCS tested

b) the LT1112 reads " ... Picoamp Input" ((i wonder what they mean by that)) anyway it's used here (not as initially planned)


a) almost no change to something already multiple tested but still new


a) compared with oldies ::

Non real world Constant current sources Comparison

NB! :: the brought circuits are not tested in reality -- they only represent a technical hint to a "What such grids may behave like" -- they are modifications from std. current source cirquits

the long story short -- THE TEST ::


here's no intentional temperature compensation = in real there is likely a significant difference to these plots



note:: the last shown (the lowermost fig. , right) is actually been built but tested near-around-below of it's 5V range (not entirely) -- however it worked better after replacing the HiFq-LoPwr transistors of the shown "zener" with MedLoFq-LoPwr 1-s (that is lowering the "starting point" of a zener - with expense of it's precision x (overall) range loss) -- which however improved the current source in low voltage range

by that i reworked my "zener" concept - finding the following being (/!\) most likely the best (/!\) to use
however this one has a "startup ramp" ...




... i won't show here the "zeners" without "startup ramp" -- coz the're not tested in real
NB! this "zener" HAS a "startup ramp" (remove the capacitors -- and it nastily shows out)
