Important dates:
>> Registration: 21 May 2021 - 15 June 2021
>> Marathon Launch : 17 June 2021

FOSSEE 3-Day workshop on eSim

eSim (previously known as Oscad / FreeEDA) is a free/libre and open source EDA tool for circuit design, simulation, analysis and PCB design. It is an integrated tool built using free/libre and open source software such as KiCad, Ngspice and GHDL. eSim is released under GPL.

These workshops are being conducted by the expert faculty members of Indian Institute of Technology, Bombay. For registration and more details, visit our webpage. Participation certificate will be awarded to all the people who attend this workshop.

Circuit Design and Simulation Project using eSim

Invitation to participate in Circuit Design and Simulation Project using eSim

The FOSSEE (Free and Open Source Software for Education) project based at lIT Bombay has initiated a Circuit Design and Simulation Project using esim (an open source EDA tool for circuit design, simulation, analysis and PCB design).

Interested candidates can take any solved electronic circuit from any source and redesign it using eSim and submit it to us. Candidates will be rewarded with certificates and honorarium after a review process. These circuits will also be published on our website under an appropriate open source license.
