It does verilog-a, I think it can load SPICE files, has a +decent parts library, enables parametric plotting of circuit parameters, can do +basic transmission line and PCB layout simulations, etc. I found "A Qucs +Tutorial for RF" helpful for getting started; the default tutorial is also +good. + +On debian wheezy, install the following (some are probably not necessary, like +cmake): + + sudo aptitude install libxml-libxml-perl libgd-gd2-perl zlib1g zlib1g-dev libgd2-xpm-dev libxml2 libxml2-dev libxml-perl libqt4-dev libqt4-qt3support automake libtool gperf flex bison cmake + +Then follow the build directions at +https://github.com/Qucs/qucs/wiki/Build-Linux. You don't need to set the +``--prefix``, but you do need ``--enable-maintainer-mode``. You probably want +to ``make -j8`` to build faster. -- cgit v1.2.3
