## QUCS - Quite Universal Circuit Simulator - version 0.0.19

Qucs is an integrated circuit simulator which means you are able to setup a circuit with a graphical user interface (GUI) and simulate the large-signal, small-signal and noise behaviour of the circuit. After that simulation has finished you can view the simulation results on a presentation page or window.

## Windows portable version

It is recommended to use the script `qucs.bat` to launch QUCS.
Please modify the script if necessary.
