Decrypting LTspice encrypted model and symbol files
Dr. Joe Sylve and Lucas Gerads on GitHub post SpiceCrypt, a specialized Python library for decrypting LTspice® encrypted model and symbol files. It supports both the text-based format (.CIR, .SUB, .LIB, .ASY, and other files using a modified DES variant) and the Binary File format (a two-layer XOR stream cipher), with automatic format detection. SpiceCrypt […]
