What is correct names for GOOD user friendly circuit drawing program?

It sounds like you're looking for an intuitive and accessible circuit design program to rekindle your interest in electronics. Many modern tools, like TinkerCAD Circuits or EasyEDA, are downloadable or browser-based, offering user-friendly interfaces for designing and simulating circuits. They support customization and can be scaled to your needs.

EasyEDA might be FUN to make circuits and no need to solder parts together.

Hello Gary350,

Tried several Eagle, LTSpice. The easiest one to learn found is DipTrace.

I will look.....yes Ne555 is there. Where are mosfets?

mosfets are listed as nmos and pmos in the top folder in components. One level up from where you found the 555.

I have LTspice working. I started out with a small circuit battery connected to an LED then added a resistor. It takes practice to draw lines, rotate parts, add parks, change parts, etc.

I made another circuit LTspice wanted a time. Time has to be right or LTspice wants it changed.

Then I made a larger circuit with several parts for more practice putting a circuit together.

Then I did a circuit with 2 mosfets LTspice only expects part numbers that are already in memory. I learned IRF530 with capitol letters is the only mosfet I found so far that works. LTspice says this is good working circuit.

I made a 555 timer circuit also. LTspice wants a time so I type 1 and 1 for both answers but now can not find the option to change time to .001 and .001?

In the process of trying to find a way to change the time I clicked something that made a black screen. 15 minutes later I closed LTspice then open again black screen is gone circuit drawing gone also.

This is fun. Still more to learn.
