I am learning analog ic design right now. I can not afford the commercial layout tools, so I am looking for the following options:
1) Schematic entry:
gschem, I've used this one for a long time and it is very powerful.
2) SPICE
LTC SPICE is free and the author said it is AS POWERFUL AS HSPICE, and it
is internally used in Linear Tech to design their own ICs.
I have used it in DC-DC designs, It IS Powerful
3) Layout
I've heard about Magic and haven't used it. Can any one tell me if it is capable of serious analog ic design?
Thanks a lot!
