The Proteus Design Suite ties schematic capture, simulation and PCB layout into one toolchain. Its simulator executes compiled firmware for popular microcontroller families, so a board behaves like real hardware before anything is manufactured.
Analog and digital SPICE modelling runs alongside animated probes, and the layout editor handles design rules, copper pour and 3D board preview.
