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.
A common form of in-circuit testing uses a bed-of-nails tester.This is a fixture that uses an array of spring-loaded pins known as "pogo pins". When a printed circuit board is aligned with and pressed down onto the bed-of-nails tester, the pins make electrical contact with locations on the circuit board, allowing them to be used as test points for in-circuit testing.
Software which is used to run reproducible tests systematically on a piece of software under test is known as a test harness; part of its job is to set up suitable test fixtures. In generic xUnit , a test fixture is all the things that must be in place in order to run a test and expect a particular outcome.
Dragonfly - Embedded test IP insertion tool for logic, memory and mixed-signal testing; Silicon Insight - Interactive program that works with 3rd party testers for controlling and logging of data on the device for at-speed testing; Yield Insight - Yield analysis program which looks at foundry and performance data to diagnose possible problems
TINA software is available in installable and cloud-based versions. Feature versions exist for use in industry [6] and for educational use. [2] [7] TINA allows simulation, design, and real-time testing of hardware description language (HDL), such as VHDL, VHDL-AMS, Verilog, Verilog-A, Verilog-AMS, SystemVerilog and SystemC and for microcontroller (MCU) circuits, [2] as well as mixed electronic ...
Spring loaded pins are a component of the bed of nails tester. A bed of nails tester is a traditional electronic test fixture used for in-circuit testing.It has pins inserted into holes in an epoxy phenolic glass cloth laminated sheet (G-10) which are aligned using tooling pins to make contact with test points on a printed circuit board and are also connected to a measuring unit by wires.
Quite Universal Circuit Simulator (Qucs) is a free-software electronics circuit simulator software application released under GPL. It offers the ability to set up a circuit with a graphical user interface and simulate the large-signal, small-signal and noise behaviour of the circuit.
On-chip debugging is an alternative to in-circuit emulation. It uses a different approach to address a similar goal. On-chip debugging, often loosely termed as Joint Test Action Group (JTAG), uses the provision of an additional debugging interface to the live hardware, in the production system. It provides the same features as in-circuit ...
