LoCAD is a software for designing and simulating digital circuits.
Special emphasis is given to simple creation and graphical visualization of a circuit's functioning.
The inputs and outputs of the elements can be wired quite simply.
Usually, two touches are sufficient. The system searches a convenient way by itself.
In the simulation, you can watch the current flow and thus follow the cycle of state changes.
This way, your understanding of a circuit's functioning is enhanced, and your perception of circuit faults is improved.
It is possible to produce your own elements (ICs) with discretionary levels of nesting.
Like this, you can build big and complex circuits in a clearly arranged way. During the simulation, you can watch the state changes in all ICs.
A detailed introduction facilitates your familiarisation with the software.

In the lite version, the number of usable elements is reduced to 13 elements per circuit.

Version 8.2.3
The error correction in the iPad version leads to a runtime improvement when switching off the continuous cycle.
Previous Versions
Here you can find the changelog of LoCAD Lite since it was posted on our website on 2016-10-14 22:53:26.
The latest version is 8.2.3 and it was updated on 2026-06-12 09:45:29. See below the changes in each version.
LoCAD Lite version 8.2.3
Updated At: 2025-07-06
Changes: Jul 6, 2025
Version 8.2.3
The error correction in the iPad version leads to a runtime improvement when switching off the continuous cycle.
LoCAD Lite version 8.2.1
Updated At: 2024-10-03
Changes: Oct 3, 2024
Version 8.2.1
This update
• prevents the incorrect error message “A problematic connecting line was found” that may occur in edit mode
• fixes an error caused by the adaptation to iPadOS 17.6.x when
> selecting lines in edit mode
> creating ICs
> stopping the clock generator via the stop input
LoCAD Lite version 8.0
Updated At: 2024-09-13
Changes: Sep 13, 2024
Version 8.0
This update adds the following to the operating mode
• an option to specify a number of cycles that are executed as a cycle sequence using the continuous pulse button. If the number 0 is entered, normal continuous pulse mode is activated.
• an option to adjust the clock frequency.
LoCAD Lite version 7.7
Updated At: 2024-09-06
Changes: Sep 6, 2024
Version 7.7
In this version
• fixes the delayed signal run error that occurs as of iPadOS 17.6.x
• the display in the large 7-segment display with decoder is adapted to hexadecimal coding (0000 → 0, 1001 → 9, 1010 → A, 1111 → F).
So that leading zeros can be hidden, the display is provided with an activation input A (top right).
When loading a circuit with the previous version, the activation input is automatically added.
LoCAD Lite version 7.6
Updated At: 2024-02-09
Changes: Feb 9, 2024
Version 7.6
This update fixes a display error in the IC interior view.
Due to a programming error when hiding dummy leads (see version 7.0), some short leads that lead to component connections are not displayed in the internal view of ICs.
As this is only a display problem, it has no effect on the function of the ICs.
LoCAD Lite version 7.5
Updated At: 2024-02-01
Changes: Feb 1, 2024
Version 7.5
This update fixes a display error in the LED matrix and contains further stability improvements.
LoCAD Lite version 7.4
Updated At: 2023-11-06
Changes: Nov 6, 2023
Version 7.4
This update
• contains stability improvement
• adds a diode to the basic elements and an LED matrix and an enlarged seven-segment display with integrated decoder to the block elements.
This ensures the exchange of circuits between the macOS and iOS versions.
LoCAD Lite version 7.2
Updated At: 2023-09-13
Changes: Sep 13, 2023
Version 7.2
This update contains some improvements for editing cutouts.
LoCAD Lite version 7.1
Updated At: 2023-08-28
Changes: Aug 28, 2023
Version 7.1
This update
• improves the algorithm for automatic dragging of lines in connection with the basic element location options added in version 7.0.
• eliminates the short line pieces for creating gaps (see version 7.0) from the IC internal circuit
LoCAD Lite version 7.0
Updated At: 2023-08-14
Changes: Aug 14, 2023
Version 7.0
This update contains the following changes:
• By popular request, the position options of the basic elements have been added, so that the outputs can now also be directed to the left and upwards. The desired position can be selected via the arrows in the second row.
• When creating ICs, input lines without a connection to a component that are a maximum of 3 grid units long are not drawn as a connection at the IC edge but are entered as a gap in the row of connections.
