About this app

Are you looking for tools like Multisim, SPICE, LTspice, Proteus, Altium or PhET simulations? That's great! PROTO is an real time electronic circuit simulator which means you are able to setup a circuit with various components and simulate behaviour of the electronic circuit ⚡
During simulation you can check voltages, currents and many other variables. Check signals on multichannel oscilioscope and tune your circuit in real time! Our app can greatly help with your Raspberry Pi, Arduino or ESP32 project. You can also use PROTO as logic circuit simulator and perform digital electronic analysis!

ℹ️ You can report an issue or make component request at Github

This app helps me a lot. I can find out if I will get any output by doing the calculations here. I have been doing this for many years. My friends are impressed after seeing this app. I want to share this app with them. There are only a few drawbacks. Because of the small point, sometimes I am not able to touch the point accurately or there are some other small problems. and if any other circuit is made and some extra things are added and edited then it happens once or twice when I undo it only

This app has potential but it needs some work. It complains improperly about shorted capacitors (make a bridge rectifier, connect an LED, put one cap in parallel, it's fine.. put 2 in parallel, now there's a short? Nonsense, this setup is common), and the simulation time step you choose changes whether the circuit even works (certain values will blow LEDs). I do like the interface, but that doesn't matter much when the basic functionality of the app isn't right.

Hello Zak. Capacitor has no internal resistance (ideal math model) and in some cases you need add small resistance between source and capacitor. Best Regards PROTO Team

Paid for the add-ons, works great, would be 5 stars if it didn't shift up the scope out of view when you monitor 4 spots and if it didn't force analyze attributes after you buy it. Can't turn them off takes up half the screen as long as the scope is open
