However we can add models of other (third party) devices for example the DB3 Diac, MOC3021optocoupler, etc. For including these in an LTspice schematic, one needs to download a Spice model for that particular component, usually available on the manufacturer’s site, and include it in the schematic. Once you have the Spice model on your computer, adding it to your LTspice library is very easy. Simply copy the file to your LTC LTspiceIV lib sub folder. Usually the full path to that directory will be either C: Program Files (x86) LTC LTspiceIV lib sub on a 64 bit Windows 7 installation or C: Program Files LTC LTspiceIV lib sub on a 32 bit.

Adding New Components using Windows
LTspice comes with a selection of components and models, but you may find on occasion there is a need to add new parts and models. You can design your own, but you may find that one has already been created.
The yahoo LTspice user grouphas a files section where you can download new components. You need to join the group first, then browse to the files section and lib (library) directory, screenshot below.
Download your desired files and save them to your computer. Next you need to place them in the required directories. On windowsthis location will generally be C:Program FilesLTCLTspiceIVlib Open windows explorer and browse to the lib folder (screenshot).
Inside C:Program FilesLTCLTspiceIVlib will be three more folders,cmp, sub and sym. It is a good idea to bookmark this location forfuture use. Click Favorites and add a suitable name.
To add for example the CMOS4000 library, download the files CD4000.lib and CD4000.zip. The lib folder can be placed anywhere inside libdirectory. Many library files are kept in the sym folder but as long as an include statement ( .inc CD4000.lib) is placed on the schematic theywill be found as the search is recursive through the directory structure. (Screenshot below.)
Now it is also necessary to add the symbols for the CMOS4000 series. The symbols must be placed in the sym folder. The symbols are compressed into a zip file, copy CD4000.zip into the sym folder and extract it, a new sub folder called CD4000 will be created.Inside the CD4000 folder, the symbols of many of the 4000 series IC's have been created.Using the new components is easy, start a new schematic, click parts (or press F2) and you should now see the new CD4000 library (screenshot below):-Selecting the [CD4000] folder should now display many of the CMOS4000series IC's. Clicking the model should also preview the symbol.Once created remember to add the include statement.
Important ! If designing circuits for other people then all component libraries,models and any custom symbols need to be included in the same fileotherwise they will get a component not found error.
The following example circuit is an example using the CMOS 4000 library and LTspice :1 Hour Timer
Adding New Components using Linux
If you are running LTspice from linux then installing new components isthe same as for windows. The main difference is the location of LTspice.
LTspiceIV runs perfectly as long the wine program is installed. Wine issoftware that allows many windows programs to run on linux. A hidden .wine folder will becreated for each user on the system. Download the component files to~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/LTC/LTspiceIV/lib/cmp
You can bookmark this location in konqueror or nautilus or simply copyusing the terminal. A screenshot using konqueror file manager is below:Adding New Discrete Components
To add new transistors download this fileandsave in the cmp directory. This file adds new European transistor e.g.BC107 series, BC547 series and many of the circuits on CircuitExchange. Please note this file will overwrite existing model files in LTspice.

Shell Script for linux Users
The following bash script is designed to make life easier when adding new components to LTspice. It is a simple shell script that can be modified and places all component, library, model and subcircuit files into the relevant directory in LTspice. My download location is/media/share/electronics/ltspice Just replace this with your download location for your system.
