The FOSSEE -(free and open source software in science and engineering education) group at IIT -Bombay, of which we are a part of, initially started working on Python and Scilab. The -Standing Committee of NMEICT encouraged us to contribute to other open source -software as well. This push helped us develop eSim, an open source alternative to -OrCAD. -<!--l. 18--><p class="indent" > eSim is an electronic design automation (EDA) tool, developed using KiCad and Ngspice. -We have made the netlist files generated by KiCad suitable for simulation through -Ngspice. In order to provide an explanation facility, we have developed a method to -automatically generate differential equations that describe a given analog circuit. -Once satisfied with simulation results, the user can create a Gerber file for PCB -fabrication. -<!--l. 24--><p class="indent" > The FOSSEE team has also created more than 160 Scilab Textbook Companions, -each of which contains Scilab code for worked out examples of standard textbooks, -mostly in engineering and science.

These textbooks can be -downloaded free of cost from <span class="cite"> [<span -class="cmbx-10x-x-109">?</span>]</span>.
