According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, two of the definitions for ‘smart’ are
- operating by automation and
- using a built-in microprocessor for automatic operation, for processing of data, or for achieving greater versatility
By this definition, any SPICE simulator qualifies as a smart design tool, but what about versatility? SmartSpice has had over 30 years of product development and is the Swiss Army knife of circuit simulators, with wide applicability to different CAD design flows.
