Padne is a KiCad-focused Power Delivery Network Simulator.
It uses the finite element method in order to simulate the voltage drop induced by DC currents on printed circuit boards.
This allows easy identification of resistive bottlenecks, design of high current distribution networks or implementing complex heating elements.
Try it out
Visit the application page, launch Padne in a shell environment and follow the usage instructions.
