I aten't ded yet, but am very busy. I needed to work for most of the weekend after working for too large a proportion of my waking hours last week.
Yesterday I went to a seminar setup by Arrow Electronics, to learn how to use LTspice better, and in the afternoon a useful revision of fundamentals I learned about at University, Johnson noise, shot noise, the effect of sampling jitter on effective resolution on ADCs, that sort of thing.
The presenter in the morning made a believable case as to why LTspice is the best analogue electronics simulator available. I have certainly found it useful, because testing ideas in simulation is much quicker than actually building a model to test. The first design I prototype is then a lot closer to the production design than it would be otherwise. I hope my customers appreciate the efficiency gains :-)
