For simple circuit simulation, you can use Ktechlab (directly
su -c
'yum install -y ktechlab').
It's not very fast, not very accurate, but very graphic and
simple. It
may fits for your purpose...
wow this app suits my requirement. Thanks
Thanks for all you foryour quick and friendly responses. KTechlab
was
more that enough for my requirement. It seems that the other apps
including gEDA are move advanced and need a lot of effort in
learning.
We will be having a module on circuit simulation in near future.
They
use Spice and I hope to use ng-spice as I'm much more interested in
FOSS.
Urr? SPICE has always been freely available. I remember
downloading it
and building it on a VAX easily twenty years ago.
But they don't offer a linux version I guess.
I'm pretty sure I built it under Ultrix, which is an early BSD
UNIX derivative. I know I built a FORTRAN version under VMS, but I'm
pretty sure I built one on Ultrix.
SPICE 3f5 is the latest Berkeley release, and this is (if I recall
correctly) the release from which ng-spice is derived. 3f5 does
build under Linux, I think.
But regardless, ng-spice is pretty much "real" SPICE, so you're on
the right track! Lots of companies have grabbed the free SPICE, made
vendor-specific enhancements, and released it as a binary-only
product (usually for one specific company's rickety, proprietary
operating system) and often not for free. This doesn't mean "SPICE
isn't free". ;)
