About

CircuitSim is a full SPICE circuit simulator with a 3,000+ component library and a modern schematic editor. No install, free to get started. Built for students, educators, and professionals. It runs in a browser tab and needs no admin rights, so it works on Chromebooks and locked-down school laptops. Run seven kinds of analysis: interactive, interactive operating point, transient, AC sweep, DC operating point, DC sweep, and parameter sweep. Results plot on oscilloscope-style charts, with probes you can drop anywhere in the circuit. Define custom parts from SPICE model text or import KiCad symbols. CircuitSim also imports Multisim Live designs ahead of that product's retirement on September 15, 2026. It is the only browser tool that opens .csim, .ms14, and .msjs files, and it rebuilds the schematic with wiring, placement, net labels, probes, and simulation settings intact. Classroom licensing adds seat assignment, anonymous student seats, and private student work.

About

Synopsys OptSim is an award-winning photonic integrated circuit (PIC) and fiber-optic system simulator that enables engineers to design and optimize photonic circuits and systems. It offers state-of-the-art time- and frequency-domain split-step algorithms, providing a native photonic-domain environment for accurate simulations. OptSim can function as a standalone solution with its own graphical user interface or integrate into the OptoCompiler Photonic IC design platform. When integrated with OptoCompiler, OptSim supports electro-optic co-simulation with Synopsys PrimeSim HSPICE and PrimeSim SPICE electrical circuit simulators, and seamlessly integrates with the PrimeWave Design Environment for advanced simulation, analyses, and visualization, including parametric scans, Monte Carlo, and corner analyses. The software includes extensive libraries of photonic and electronic components and analysis tools, and supports numerous foundry process design kits (PDKs).
