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.
Elmore delay [5] is a simple approximation, often used where speed of calculation is important but the delay through the wire itself cannot be ignored. It uses the R and C values of the wire segments in a simple calculation. The delay of each wire segment is the R of that segment times the downstream C. Then all delays are summed from the root.
In general a digital delay-line based TDC, [19] also known as tapped delay line, contains a chain of cells (e.g. using D-latches in the figure) with well defined delay times . The start signal propagates through this chain and is successively delayed by each cell.
The group delay and phase delay properties of a linear time-invariant (LTI) system are functions of frequency, giving the time from when a frequency component of a time varying physical quantity—for example a voltage signal—appears at the LTI system input, to the time when a copy of that same frequency component—perhaps of a different physical phenomenon—appears at the LTI system output.
Static timing analysis (STA) is a simulation method of computing the expected timing of a synchronous digital circuit without requiring a simulation of the full circuit. High-performance integrated circuits have traditionally been characterized by the clock frequency at which they operate. Measuring the ability of a circuit to operate at the ...
An open-source language and toolchain to describe electronic circuit boards with code. PHDL (PCB HDL) A free and open source HDL for defining printed circuit board connectivity. EDAsolver An HDL for solving schematic designs based on constraints. SKiDL: Open source Python module to design electronic circuits.
A series of resistor–capacitor circuits (RC circuits) can be cascaded to form a delay. A long transmission line can also provide a delay element. The delay time of an analog delay line may be only a few nanoseconds or several milliseconds, limited by the practical size of the physical medium used to delay the signal and the propagation speed ...
Python: Code-based EDA tool that allows hardware engineers to design electronic circuits and PCBs using a programming-like environment. It integrates hardware design specifications directly into code, enabling intelligent design capture, version control, and continuous integration practices. [15] FreePCB: Windows: GPL: Yes-Gerber: No
