Gwave - a waveform viewer

Now on Sourceforge!

SourceForge.net Logo
Gwave is now hosted on sourceforge; versions on my personal sites may not be up to date. The 2009* releases so far primarily add stability improvements over the previous release. Additional updates, build-system fixes, and documentation/web-site improvements are still planned. Potential collaborators are definitely welcome to contact me here or at home.

Introduction

Gwave is a tool for viewing analog data, such as the output of Spice simulations.

Gwave can read "raw" files from spice2G6, spice3F5 or ngspice, and a tabular ASCII format suitable for use with GnuCAP or homegrown tools. It can also read several binary and ascii files written by commercial spice-type simulators such as hspice, tspice, and nanosim.

It supports multiple "panels" (graticules) with multiple variables displayed in each. Two vertical-bar cursors are available for time-difference measurements. Multiple files can be loaded, for comparing results of several simulations.
