Romano Giannetti submitted an update to the

                CircuiTikZ

package.

Version number: 1.0 2020-02-04
License type: lppl gpl

Summary description: Draw electrical networks with TikZ

Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

And finally... version 1.0 (2020-02-04) of circuitikz will be released.

The main updates since version 0.8.3, which was the last release before
Romano started co-maintaining the project, are the following --- part
coded by Romano, part by several collaborators around the internet:

- The manual has been reorganized and extended, with the addition of a
tutorial part; tens of examples have been added all over the map.

- Around 74 new shapes where added. Notably, now there are chips,
mux-demuxes, multi-terminal transistors, several types of switches,
flip-flops, vacuum tubes, 7-segment displays, more amplifiers, and
so on.

- Several existing shapes have been enhanced; for example, logic gates
have a variable number of inputs, transistors are more configurable,
resistors can be shaped more, and so on.

- You can style your circuit, changing relative sizes, default
thickness and fill color, and more details of how you like your
circuit to look; the same you can do with labels (voltages,
currents, names of components and so on).

- A lot of bugs have been squashed; especially the (very complex)
voltage direction conundrum has been clarified and you can choose
your preferred style here too.
