Introducing QSPICE: The Next Generation Mixed-Mode Simulation Tool for Advanced Circuit Design
The original Simulation Program with Integrated Circuit Emphasis (SPICE) was introduced in 1973. Engineer Mike Engelhardt began developing his version of SPICE a quarter-century after its inception. Fast forward another 25 years and Qorvo has unveiled QSPICE, the company's latest...

Obviously, after Mike Bushell from Vital Group first introduced the CRUMB circuit simulator several months ago, the hardware design engineer did not rest on his oars as what we saw recently showed that he has been working on the progressive development of the circuit simulator. From...

LTspice is powerful electronic circuit simulator software and it is free. Probably because it is free, not too much effort has been put into its user interface. Even though it is perfectly capable of what it is designed for, it does not look pretty and lacks user-friendliness. But with...

Christer wanted to see how a 500MHz differential clock was behaving so he decided to build an active probe. To simulate the circuit he used TINA spice software and documented the process in three parts on his website. What I really wanted was an active differential probe...
