Free and simple digital logic simulator

Show the fundamentals of computers with Digital Logic Sim. It's a minimalist digital logic simulator where you start with an AND and a NOT doors. This was developed by the developer, Sebastian Lague, as a visualization tool for the video series he made. It's an extremely easy platform that everybody can use - even young, non-technical users. The software is far from full-featured, efficient sims like Logisim, but it has everything required to illustrate simple digital logic.

What is Digital Logic Sim? 

Digital Logic Sim is intended for the demonstration of simple circuits. If you're a student, an instructor, or a hobbyist, this is an open platform that you can use. The software plunges you straight into making logic boards so you'll need to be familiar with the gates and circuits before you start using this program. The simulator is seen on a simple, black page that reflects your workstation and is read from left to right.

CREATE, AND, and NOT, are at the bottom of your screen. CREATE lets the machine know that you're trying to make a new circuit. AND and NOT are the logic gates given by the software. They are the building blocks of the digital framework. They can have several inputs, but they can handle just one output. AND gates implies that at least two inputs are needed to generate one out.

The NOT gate requires only one input and one output. You will build more complex circuit boards as you progress; more gates would be added to the program-such as OR, XOR, and ADDER-for you to use in future updates and patches to the sim. It also means that you need to improve your understanding of gates, logic, and truth tables since the software would not explain what they are about.

Start learning the basics of computers

Digital Logic Sim is a nice software that can be used by anybody who wants an open, easy-to-use logic simulator. With it, you can learn more about how machines operate and how this program's commands are obtained with its neat and minimalist interface. Although the software itself does not have a guide, the developer made a video series about it and how it functions so you won't have much difficulty in learning how to use it.

PROS

  • Neat and minimalist user interface
  • Uses click and drag system
  • Generates its own gates

CONS

  • Lacks in-program tutorial
  • Requires knowledge of circuits and truth tables
