Fritzing's schematic view. The software was created with inspiration from the Processing programming language and the Arduino microcontroller [6] and allows a designer, artist, researcher, or hobbyist to document their Arduino-based prototype and create a PCB layout for manufacturing. The associated website helps users share and discuss drafts ...
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.
CircuitMaker is electronic design automation software for printed circuit board designs, for the hobby, hacker, and maker community. [1] [2] CircuitMaker is available as freeware, and the hardware designed with it may be used for commercial and non-commercial purposes without limitations. [3]
A simple electronic circuit prototype on a breadboard Example of prototype in optoelectronics (Texas Instruments, DLP Cinema Prototype System). In electronics, prototyping means building an actual circuit to a theoretical design to verify that it works, and to provide a physical platform for debugging it if it does not.
EAGLE contains a schematic editor, for designing circuit diagrams. Schematics are stored in files with .SCH extension, parts are defined in device libraries with .LBR extension. Parts can be placed on many sheets and connected together through ports. The PCB layout editor stores board files with the extension .BRD.
Circuit diagrams drawn with CircuiTikZ. CircuiTikZ is a TikZ add-on for drawing schematic diagrams. Advantages: Very professional looking output (same quality as in commercial textbooks). Active user community. Tikz can be used to draw almost anything, so it might be worth learning anyway. Disadvantages: Some learning of Tikz is required.
Mixed-signal circuit simulator KTechLab: Linux: GPL: KTechLab is a schematic capture and simulator. It is specifically geared toward mixed signal simulation of analog components and small digital processors. Ngspice: Linux, Solaris, Mac, NetBSD, FreeBSD, Windows: BSD-3-Clause: SPICE + XSPICE + Cider Oregano: GPL-2.0-or-later: Schematic capture ...
For example, littleBits implements open-source business models by making available the circuit designs in each electronics module, in accordance with the CERN Open Hardware License Version 1.2. [75] Another example is Arduino , which registered its name as a trademark ; others may manufacture products from Arduino designs but cannot call the ...
