Lcapy can only analyse linear time invariant (LTI) circuits, this includes both passive and active circuits. Time invariance means that the circuit parameters cannot change with time; i.e., capacitors cannot change value with time. It also means that the circuit configuration cannot change with time, i.e., contain switches (although switching problems can be analysed, see Switching analysis). Linearity means that superposition applies—if you double the voltage of a source, the current (anywhere in the circuit) due to that source will also double. This restriction rules out components such as diodes and transistors that have a non-linear relationship between current and voltage (except in circumstances where the relationship can be approximated as linear around some constant value—small signal analysis). Linearity also rules out capacitors where the capacitance varies with voltage and inductors with hysteresis. Lcapy circuits can be created using a netlist specification (see Netlists) o
