Simulate A Neon Lamp In Spice By Using A Hysteric Resistor

Several types of circuit elements exhibit hysteretic behavior. Unfortunately, Spice simulation programs typically don't include an easy method to model such effects. For example, a simple neon light flasher is difficult to simulate with Spice...
