Logicly - the digital logic simulator

This. Is. Awesome.

I was a CS student, but we had to take some intro Computer Engineering/circuit logic theory classes. I loved it, but we only did things on paper (and I didn't want to buy a whole breadboard kit just to play with simple logic circuits, etc...). I wish this was around when I was learning because I really wanted to play with making more complicated setups than we did in class.

This is like the Balsamiq of Circuits with the added bonus of running the stuff. Yes, being able to snap wires to a grid would be nice, but I'm having a blast with this right now.

Thanks! I was actually inspired to do this while studying CS at university. My professor used a simple Java applet to demonstrate logic gates, and I quickly saw that it could be improved quite a bit. A few years later, I finally decided to play around with the idea as a weekend project, and it's been progressing from there.

I believe GNU Electric does what you mention. http://www.gnu.org/software/electric/

We had some software at UT for EE 316, it was made back in the 90's though. It basically showed 1/0 states, let you probe areas in the logic, and had some ways to represent the logic as equations.

Does LogicAid ring a bell? I dreaded that class, but it really showed you how to pace yourself. This is a great modernization!
