    19 ** About NGSpice

    20 

    21 Ngspice is a mixed-level/mixed-signal circuit simulator. Its code is

    22 based on three open source software packages: Spice3f5, Cider1b1 and

    23 Xspice. Ngspice is part of gEDA project, a full GPL'd suite of

    24 Electronic Design Automation tools.

    25 

    26 Spice3 does not need any introduction, is the most popular circuit

    27 simulator. In over 30 years of its life Spice3 has become a de-facto

    28 standard for simulating circuits.

    29 

    30 Cider couples Spice3f5 circuit level simulator to DSIM device

    31 simulator to provide greater simulation accuracy of critical

    32 devices. DSIM devices are described in terms of their structures and

    33 materials.

    34 

    35 Xspice is an extension to Spice3C1 that provides code modeling support

    36 and simulation of digital components through an embedded event driven

    37 algorithm.
