Circuit Wizard is an electronics design automation (EDA) software developed by New Wave Concepts. It is widely used in schools and by hobbyists because it combines four distinct functions into one seamless interface:

Version 1.50 is an older release, often favored because it is lightweight, runs smoothly on older hardware, and offers a straightforward interface without the bloat of modern software suites.

The software includes sample projects and lab-style exercises, making it a favorite for GCSE and A-level electronics courses in the UK, as well as introductory college labs worldwide.

Before diving into the portable aspect, let’s understand the base software. Circuit Wizard was developed by New Wave Concepts (now part of RS Components). It is an integrated software package designed primarily for educational purposes. Unlike professional tools that separate schematic entry, simulation, and PCB design into different modules, Circuit Wizard combines them into a single, intuitive workflow.
