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 ]
Of these, LTSpice and Micro-cap are free proprietary applications based on SPICE. Micro-Cap was released as freeware in July 2019, when its parent company Spectrum Software closed down while LTSpice has been free for a long time.
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.
LTspice software Mike Thomas Engelhardt [ 1 ] is an American computer programmer , author, and entrepreneur. [ 2 ] He is renowned for developing the SPICE -based analog electronic circuit simulator computer software known as LTspice [ 3 ] and QSPICE .
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.
Ngspice supports parametric netlists (i.e. netlists can contain parameters and expressions). PSPICE compatible parametric macromodels, often released by manufacturers, can be imported as-is into the simulator.
KiCad was created in 1992 by Jean-Pierre Charras while working at IUT de Grenoble. [8] The name came from the first letters in the name of a company of Jean-Pierre's friend in combination with the term CAD. [9]
The gEDA project was started by Ales Hvezda in an effort to remedy the lack of free software EDA tools for Linux/UNIX. [4] The first software was released on 1 April 1998, and included a schematic capture program and a netlister. [5]
