Released Mac OSX installer (10.7 to 10.9), ASCO included.įor FreeHDL, Verilog-A, users are better served using a Updated package for Ubuntu 14.04 (Trusty) and 14.10 (Utopic), Released installer fo Mac OSX 10.6 (Intel 64 bit) (ASCO included). Latest documentation for "master" branch available for Publication "Qucs: An introduction to the new simulation and compact device modelling features implemented in release 0.0.19/0.0.19Src2 of the popular GPL circuit simulator.",Įnabled automatic generation and deployment of Doxygen source code documentation. So far my pick is QucsStudio for Qucs like simulators and LTspice for Spice like simulators.Latest News Latest stable release: 0.0.19 Components models and libraries seems different between Spice and Qucsator engines. For non RF simulations, LTspice is easier to operate and have more parts models when in comparison with Qucs or TINA-TI. microstrip simulation, filters design, Smith charts, etc. QucsStudio has the best GUI, a good set of video tutorials, and what I like most, it has live Sliders (called Tune), look how awesome this feature is (at minute 3:55)! - All Qucs versions have some nice RF goodies e.g. Just unzip and run bin/qucs.exe with WINE on Linux, or run the start.bat for Windows.

QucsStudio (IMO this is the best Qucs) - has the look of QUCS, it is released as a portable version for Windows only, but it works just fine in Linux with Wine and it is all built with GNU components, but compiled for Windows/MinGW only. Besides Qucs-S, ngspice must also be installed. Usually not in the Linux repositories, has to be compiled or installed manually. Qucs-S (Qucs with Spice) - has the look of QUCS, but the simulation engine is based on SPICE, more precise 'ngspice'. QUCS (Quite Universal Circuit Simulator) - is the one usually found in Linux repositories, and the simulation engine is based on Qucsator, it is not based on SPICE 2. They are all simulators for electronic circuits, just like LTspice or TINA-TI, but different.
