    How to add pdk and user libraries in QUCS? I like to add available open source PDK of MOS Transistor for example IHP SG13G2 for circuit design and simulation. It would be great help for me if I get information regarding this and procedure to add open source above mentioned PDK and libraries. Thanks in advance for your time and efforts.

      The current workflow requires a bunch of manual steps, since
      traditionally all device models are expected to be baked into the
      simulator. This concept fails when it comes to user supplied behavioural
      models (such as psp103), requiring manual engagement.

      There is work in progress on a portable file format for schematics [1].
      The intent is to make circuits edited with Qucs both standard compliant
      and usable outside of Qucs. In a next step, we will revisit the seamless
      referencing and use of device libraries. Device models will be handled
      by the simulator, or a suitable wrapper, decoupled from the GUI.

      There is a Qucs derivative, Qucs-S, which aims to control a Spice
      simulator. There are file formats issues, discussions and plans [2].

      Best wishes
