Or at least well documented ( even just adequately documented ;-) Anybody know of a good reference book which is applicable to the Spice dialect which prottle is using? > A lot of the designs I work on are mixed-signal, not strictly analog or > digital.

It is this steep slope of having to not only learn the package, but to also simultaneously apply non-existent advanced skills to create accurate models that keeps Spice on the back burner, particularly when there is no 'good book' to turn to..
