Vcircuit

Vcircuit is a name used for several electronics-related software projects and online services that focus on circuit design, simulation, and education. The most common reference is a browser-based circuit simulator that provides a schematic editor and a simulation engine accessible without local installation. Users can place standard components such as resistors, capacitors, inductors, diodes, transistors, and voltage or current sources, set up probes to measure voltages and currents, and run simulations to observe DC operating points, transient responses, or basic AC behavior. Results are typically presented as waveforms and numerical data, with options to export netlists or images for use in other tools or documents.

In addition to the simulator, various releases and initiatives carrying the Vcircuit name have targeted educational use, lightweight hardware prototyping, or open-source circuit libraries. These efforts commonly emphasize ease of use, cross-platform accessibility, and the ability to share designs within classrooms or online communities. Some offerings integrate with microcontroller platforms, enabling simple projects that connect schematic concepts to real hardware.

As a term, Vcircuit does not refer to a single, canonical product. Instead, it denotes a family of related tools and services that revolve around electronic circuit visualization, analysis, and learning. Availability, licensing, and features vary by project, ranging from free online tools to commercial education packages.
