orcad linux

PSpice was once available in many forms including SUN work stations and Macintosh versions. As the sales of these other versions declined they were not continued. I suspect that the effort to port it over to another platform will not be done until that platform takes over at least half of the operating system market to the exclusion of windows at engineering companies. This is not likely because these companies will still need windows systems to run programs that only us it.

linux orcad

Hello to all people,

>Does OrCAD Pspice as Linux software or is any plan to create such one?

Referring to OrCAD specific, this is true OrCAD is a Windoz Only program. :-((

But If we are talking about , generic schematic entry , PCB development and
simulation tool , there are a lot of projects , often free , that do that job.

try these links

www.geda.seul.org
**broken link removed**

They are not easy like OrCAD , but for medium sized design and with
a bit of patience they can be quite good and, give comparable results .

Enjoy to all friends ;-))

cadence orcad for linux

in linux
schematic -> ECS
spice -> hspice

but Pspsice & orcad for system level design not for ASIC design
I think use vmware/wine + linux can be use
or use dual partition for windows /linux ..


I ever use winXP + vmware (run linux hspice) it is ok
but I think use linux + vmware (windows) will better

orcad pspice wine

Hallo!

On my former notebook I installed Linux and wine. Wine is a simulator for windows programms. I used pspice (MicroSim 8) and it works fine. BTW I only simulated circuits and did not make layouts. For layouting my designs I used a Eagle demo version.
