SPICE [16] UC Berkeley: 1993 Source-only End-of-life, no longer updated; historically important, because many analog simulators are based on this project Xyce [17] Sandia National Laboratories: 2023 Windows, macOS, Linux * * Backend simulator, supports parallel simulation on Linux and macOS, can solve huge circuits
LTspice is a SPICE-based analog electronic circuit simulator computer software, produced by semiconductor manufacturer Analog Devices (originally by Linear Technology). [2] It is the most widely distributed and used SPICE software in the industry. [6]
Spectre is a SPICE-class circuit simulator owned and distributed by the software company Cadence Design Systems.It provides the basic SPICE analyses and component models. It also supports the Verilog-A modeling langua
The latest addition (version 3.0) is the support of OpenVAF-compiled Verilog-A models via its OSDI interface. [ citation needed ] Between years 2000 and 2023, SpiceOpus is reported to be used as a tool for teaching the theory of circuit simulation and algorithms in higher education in several universities.
SPICE [5] is the origin of most modern electronic circuit simulators, its successors are widely used in the electronics community. Xspice [6] is an extension to Spice3 that provides additional C language code models to support analog behavioral modeling and co-simulation of digital components through a fast event-driven algorithm.
Simulation models of primitive devices (SPICE or SPICE derivatives) Transistors (typically SPICE) Capacitors; Resistors; Inductors; Design Rule Manual A user friendly representation of the process requirements; A PDK may also include standard cell libraries from the foundry, a library vendor or developed internally LEF format of abstracted ...
Because the event-driven algorithm is faster than the standard SPICE matrix solution, simulation time is greatly reduced for circuits that use event-driven models in place of analog models. [5] Mixed-mode simulation is handled on three levels: with primitive digital elements that use timing models and the built-in 12 or 16 state digital logic ...
Semiconductor device modeling creates models for the behavior of the electrical devices based on fundamental physics, such as the doping profiles of the devices. It may also include the creation of compact models (such as the well known SPICE transistor models), which try to capture the electrical behavior of such devices but do not generally ...
