List of free analog and digital electronic circuit simulators, available for Windows, macOS, Linux, and comparing against UC Berkeley SPICE.The following table is split into two groups based on whether it has a graphical visual interface or not.
EasyEDA is a web-based electronic design automation (EDA) tool suite that enables hardware engineers to design, simulate, share (publicly and privately) and discuss schematics, simulations and printed circuit boards, and to create a bill of materials, Gerber files, pick and place files and documentary outputs in the file formats PDF, PNG, and SVG.
PCB was first written by Thomas Nau for an Atari ST in 1990 and ported to UNIX and X11 in 1994. Initially PCB was not intended to be a professional layout system but as a tool for individuals to do small-scale development of hardware. [1] [3] The second release 1.2 introduced user menus. This made PCB easier to use and increased its popularity. [1]
KiCad uses an integrated environment for all of the stages of the design process: Schematic capture, PCB layout, Gerber file generation/visualization, and library editing. KiCad is a cross-platform program, written in C++ with wxWidgets to run on FreeBSD, Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X. Many component libraries are available, and users ...
These are standard file formats accepted by PCB fabrication companies, but given EAGLE's typical user base of small design firms and hobbyists, many PCB fabricators and assembly shops also accept EAGLE board files (with extension .BRD) directly to export optimized production files and pick-and-place data themselves.
Free and open-source (FOSS) EDA software bundles are currently under fast development mainly thanks to the DARPA and Google's openROAD project. The OpenROAD project offers a complete stack of tools from high-level synthesis down to layout generation [ 7 ] The flow includes Yosys for logic synthesis, OpenLane for physical synthesis and targets ...
PCB-Investigator is a software tool used for the analysis, visualization, and optimization of printed circuit boards (PCBs). It is used for tasks such as PCB design validation and quality assurance. It is developed by EasyLogix [1] owned by Schindler & Schill GmbH, a German company specializing in electronic design automation (EDA) software.
Production files can be exported directly, although an external Gerber viewer must be used to check the exports. The entire PCB can also be exported as a 3D STEP model for further use in mechanical 3D CAD software. CircuitMaker is only available for the Windows operating system.
