Top 15 Electronics Workbench Alternative and Similar Softwares | Apr 2024

In 1999 the companies merged, and renamed itself after its most well known product, Electronics Workbench. The then current product line consisted of schematic capture and a simulation product named MultiSIM and the printed circuit board software called Ultiboard. Soon thereafter the combined product suite became worldwide leader in PC based Computer Aided Design & Engineering.
In 2005 the company was acquired by National Instruments, and was rebranded as National Instruments Electronics Workbench Group. The company's original websites, Interactiv.com and ElectronicsWorkbench.com now redirect to their respective sections within the main National Instruments website. ...
