KTechLab
KTechlab is an open source IDE for electronic and PIC
microcontroller circuit design and simulation. It is a circuit designer
with autorouting and simulation of common electronic components and
logic elements.
KTechlab supports programming microcontrollers using a
graphical flowchart based language called flowcode.
Features include:
- Circuit simulator, capable of simulating logic, linear
devices and some nonlinear devices
- Integration with gpsim, allowing PICs to be simulated in
circuit
- Schematic editor, which provides a rich real-time feedback
of the simulation
- Central working canvas between sidebars as shown in the
picture on the left
- Flowchart editor, allowing PIC programs to be constructed
visually
- Circuit diagrams (or captures), flowcharts and code (c or
assembly) are displayed as tabs above the design canvas in the main
window
- Flowcharts are useful for defining the control flow of an
algorithm to be run in a programable integrated circuit (PIC)
- Analog or digital circuits can be drawn and simulated "on
the fly" while they are been built and measurements such as the branch
current or a node voltage can be displayed by hovering over the circuit
with the mouse
- Electrical Components Sidebar
- Item Sidebar
- MicroBASIC; a BASIC-like compiler for PICs, written as a
companion program to KTechlab
- Integrated assembler and disassembler via gpasm and gpdasm
