Hi All,
Over the last couple of years I have been getting back into electronics and am looking at different types of software.
My recent work has included op amps, power amplifiers, Arduino, 555s, CMOS logic, etc
Can I please have your recommendations for free to use electronic design software.
At its most basic I need to draw fairly simple circuits.
At the higher end of things, it would be nice to have some simple simulation capability e.g. virtual probing for voltages and current readings.
So the wish list looks like this (In no particular order):
1. Offline if at all possible (so SW I can install locally) NB: The more I thinks about this point, the more I realise that when I use the SW I will always be online.
2. Free to download and use
3. Library of common components
4. Simulation capability
5. Capability of drafting circuits onto strip board
Any thoughts and suggestions would be most welcome.
Many thanks
