What is gEDA?

The gEDA project is working on producing a full GPL'd suite of Electronic Design Automation tools. These tools are used for electrical circuit design, schematic capture, simulation, prototyping, and production. The gEDA project was started because of the lack of free EDA tools for UNIX. The tools are being developed mainly on GNU/Linux machines, but considerable effort is being made to make sure that gEDA runs on other UNIX variants. For a complete list of freely available tools please be sure to visit Open Collector.

Featured Free Hardware Project:
Darrell Harmon's Single Board Computer Project
Note 1


Quick links to the tools:

  • geda - GUI/Project Manager
  • gerbv - Gerber/Excellon file viewer
  • gnetlist - Netlist generation (part of gaf)
  • gnucap - GPLed mixed-mode/mixed-level circuit simulator
  • gschem - Schematic capture (part of gaf)
  • gsymcheck - Symbol checker (part of gaf)
  • GTKWave - Electronic waveform viewer
  • gwave - Analog waveform viewer
  • Icarus - Verilog simulation and synthesis tool
  • ngspice - An improved SPICE
