MacSpice Alternatives
MacSpice is described as 'Simulates and analyses electronic circuits that can range in complexity from a single resistor to an integrated circuit comprising tens-of-thousands of devices' and is an app. There are seven alternatives to MacSpice for Windows, Linux and Mac. The best alternative is LTspice, which is free. Other great apps like MacSpice are Gnucap, Oregano, Ngspice and Pspice.
MacSpice alternatives are mainly Circuit Simulators but may also be Electronic Design Automation Tools. Filter by these if you want a narrower list of alternatives or looking for a specific functionality of MacSpice.
