Gwave ist ein Werkzeug für die Betrachtung von Analogdaten wie zum
Beispiel die Ausgabe von Spice-Simulationen.
Gwave liest die Originaldaten von spice2G6, spice3F5 oder ngspice sowie
ein tabellarisches ASCII-Format, das sich für den Einsatz mit gnucap oder
selbst entwickelten Werkzeugen eignet. Es kann auch die von mehreren
kommerziellen, Spice-artigen Simulatoren wie hspice, tspice und nanosim
geschriebenen Binär- und ASCII-Dateien lesen.
Es unterstützt mehrere »Platten« (Gradnetze), in denen es jeweils mehrere
Variablen anzeigt. Zwei senkrechte Balken-Positionsmarken stehen für
Messungen von Zeitdifferenzen zur Verfügung. Mehrere Dateien können für
den Vergleich der Ergebnisse verschiedener Simulationen gleichzeitig
geladen werden.

Icarus Verilog is intended to compile all of the Verilog HDL as
described in the IEEE-1364 standard. It is not quite there
yet. It does currently handle a mix of structural and behavioral
constructs.
The compiler can target either simulation, or netlist (EDIF).

This is very good viewer for GDSII and other layout files used in the
semiconductor industry.
It is similar to 'magic', but has a much more modern GUI and is more robust
handling all kinds of GDSII files created by various other tools. Its focus is
more on viewing than on editing, but it also has limited, but expanding,
support for DRC and extraction for LVS.

Magic ist ein ehrwürdiges VLSI-Layout-Werkzeug, geschrieben in den 1980er
Jahren in Berkeley von John Ousterhout, jetzt berühmt vor allem für das
Schreiben der Scripting-Interpretersprache Tcl. Zum großen Teil aufgrund
seiner liberalen Berkeley-Lizenz ist magic bei Universitäten und kleinen
Unternehmen beliebt geblieben. Die Open-Source-Lizenz hat es
VLSI-Ingenieuren mit einer Neigung zur Programmierung ermöglicht, clevere
Ideen umzusetzen und magic dabei zu helfen, mit der Fertigungstechnologie
Schritt zu halten. Es sind jedoch die gut durchdachten Kernalgorithmen, die
magic den größten Teil seiner Popularität verleihen. Magic wird weithin als
das einfachste Werkzeug für das Layout von Schaltungen bezeichnet, selbst
für Menschen, die sich letztendlich auf kommerzielle Werkzeuge für ihren
Produktdesign-Ablauf verlassen.

Netgen is a tool for comparing netlists, a process known as LVS, which stands
for "Layout vs. Schematic". This is an important step in the integrated circuit
design flow, ensuring that the geometry that has been laid out matches the
expected circuit.
Very small circuits can bypass this step by confirming circuit operation
through extraction and simulation. Very large digital circuits are usually
generated by tools from high-level descriptions, using compilers that ensure
the correct layout geometry. The greatest need for LVS is in large analog or
mixed-signal circuits that cannot be simulated in reasonable time.
Note that the executable name in Debian is 'netgen-lvs'. For details, see
/usr/share/doc/netgen-lvs/README.Debian

After synthesis, place and route of a digital circuit, it is necessary to
verify the timing of the design. OpenSTA is a tool for doing exactly that. It
has a Tcl interface for entering commands for analysing designs.
It typically takes as input a verilog netlist, a liberty file, and other
parasitics information from the placed and routed design.

Qrouter is a tool to generate metal layers and vias to physically connect
together a netlist in a VLSI fabrication technology. It is a maze router,
otherwise known as an "over-the-cell" router or "sea-of-gates" router. That
is, unlike a channel router, it begins with a description of placed standard
cells, usually packed together at minimum spacing, and places metal routes
over the standard cells.
Qrouter uses the open standard LEF and DEF formats as file input and output.
It takes the cell definitions from a LEF file, and analyzes the geometry for
each cell to determine contact points and route obstructions. It then reads
the cell placement, pin placement, and netlist from a DEF file, performs the
detailed route, and writes an annotated DEF file as output.

Verilator is the fastest free Verilog HDL simulator, and beats many commercial
simulators. It compiles synthesizable Verilog (not test-bench code!), plus
some PSL, SystemVerilog and Synthesis assertions into C++ or SystemC code.
It is designed for large projects where fast simulation performance is of
primary concern, and is especially well suited to generate executable models
of CPUs for embedded software design teams.

This is a framework for Verilog RTL synthesis. It currently has extensive
Verilog-2005 support and provides a basic set of synthesis algorithms for
various application domains.
Yosys can be adapted to perform any synthesis job by combining the existing
passes (algorithms) using synthesis scripts and adding additional passes as
needed by extending the yosys C++ code base.
