CLUSTER CIRCUIT-EDITOR-DESIGN · 7 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2021-02-06

Electronic circuit design editors

This cluster comprises specialized editors and viewers for electronic design automation, including PCB layout, chip mask inspection, schematic capture, simulation, and timing diagram rendering. Dated entries appear sporadically across 2014, 2017, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2026, with no discernible concentration, indicating a thin and irregular entry history. Traction leaders are KLayout, pcb, and worldeditor-bin, all showing zero activity stars.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 7 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.
