download information

5Spice is copyrighted software but may be used non-commercially without charge and the install program may be freely distributed. There is a 30 day evaluation period for commercial usage before registration is required. Registration licenses the program for commercial use and provides the larger schematic sizes (A,B,C size) plus the full set of features. Registered users receive priority for support and more support options.

The download is approximately 3.5 Meg and includes the WinSpice simulation engine. Once you have tried the program, check the LINKS page for manufacturers' models to download and add to the library.

System Requirements
Windows Vista, XP, Win2000 or Win98 running on a Windows compatible computer. Should run on WinMe but not tested there. Should run in Windows on Macintosh computers that have an Intel processor but we do not support this environment.
