The 8.17 release is a major point update that optimizes the workflow for both circuit simulation and physical board design. real-time on-screen LEDs

To demonstrate the power of version 8.17, let’s design a simple with an I2C LCD and LM35 sensor.

No other software in this price range offers such seamless mixed-signal simulation. Being able to simulate an Arduino driving a motor driver IC with full analog feedback is an incredible educational and prototyping tool. It saves components from blowing up on the workbench.
