Install Xyce the Hard Way – Build from Sourceįirst download the source (requires registration). Compiled binaries of Xyce for most platforms can be found at.

You won’t be able to integrate Verilog-A models into Xyce though. It is possible to install a Xyce binary forgoing the process of building it yourself. Other systems such as Linux and Windows would need to slightly modify these instructions, but the basic idea should be very similar.

I am using Xyce 6.6, MacOS Sierra, Trilinos-12.6.4, Homebrew and gcc6.

In this blog post I demonstrate how to build Xyce from source so that it is able to do the Verilog-A model integration via the plug-in mechanism. Xyce boasts a modern code base, an active forum, supports large-scale parallel computing architectures to accelerate simulations and it’s open source too! We have recently adopted Xyce in order to further develop several memristor models including our own The Generalized Metastable Switch Memristor Model, as Xyce is able to integrate Verilog-A models into Xyce-compatible C++ code using the ADMS model compiler with the Xyce/ADMS back-end. Xyce is a new (relative to the original SPICE) circuit simulator from Sandia National Laboratories that is SPICE-compatible but operates in a fundamentally different way under the hood.
