It&#8217;s been a while since the last demo as well; but I&#8217;ve not been entirely idle on this front &#8211; the Analogue AC Simulator has been upgraded, a few bugs removed, a couple of new features (including a greater frequency range) some more preset circuits added (the ones I need for the labs here next term: in particular a voltage-controlled voltage source filter and Baxendall tone control circuits).  The one in the works is a transmission line demo showing the effect of terminations of reflections and pulse shapes, but I won&#8217;t need that one myself until next year, so I might start and finish another one before that one&#8217;s ready to release.<\/p>\n<p>The thing I&#8217;m more disappointed about is the lack of progress on getting chapters of the book up here.
