KiCad schematic editor for schematic capture KiCad PCB editor for board layout and design KiCad 3D viewer showing both VRML and IDF features on a demo board KiCad 3D viewer. 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.
The following table is split into two groups based on whether it has a graphical visual interface or not. The latter requires a separate program to provide that feature, such as Qucs-S, [1] Oregano, [2] or a schematic design application that supports external simulators, such as KiCad or gEDA.
This permissive open source license allows its integration as a simulation engine into several — proprietary or free/libre — EDA tools such as KiCad, [10] [11] EAGLE (program), [12] CoolSPICE, Altium and others. Ngspice has a command line input interface and offers plotting capability.
Its purpose is to address the current chaos of different subsets and incomplete NC files, and define a simple common standard. The XNC subset was defined by a consortium formed by Graphicode, Ucamco, KiCad and Pentalogix. The specification is freely available among others at the Ucamco download page. The specification is brief, detailed, easy ...
Electronic circuit simulation uses mathematical models to replicate the behavior of an actual electronic device or circuit. Simulation software allows for the modeling of circuit operation and is an invaluable analysis tool.
EasyEDA is an integrated browser-based tool for schematic capture, SPICE circuit simulation (based on Ngspice) and PCB layout. [3] [4]Import from Altium Designer, CircuitMaker, Eagle, Kicad and LTspice file formats as well as generic SPICE netlists is supported.
The table below provides an overview of notable computer-aided design (CAD) software. It does not judge power, ease of use, or other user-experience aspects. The table does not include software that is still in development (beta software).
Altium Designer's suite encompasses four main functional areas, including schematic capture, [4] 3D PCB design, [5] field-programmable gate array (FPGA) development [6] and release/data management. [7]
