Roadmap

v1.0 Scope

• JSON project schema with provenance.
• Backward-compatible DeviceProject plus the broader ComponentProject direction.
• Runtime mode contract for GitHub Pages, local Python backend, and future remote API mode.
• Component profile registry, starting with mosfet.power and diode.power.
• CSV curve import for digitized capacitance plots.
• Built-in vdmos-static-fast, abm-basic, diode-basic, and diode-abm-dynamic emitters.
• LTspice, ngspice, common, PSpice, HSPICE, Xyce, and experimental QSPICE starter decks.
• Extraction scoring and model benchmark evidence commands.
• Plugin entry points for third-party extractors, validators, and emitters.
• Unit tests, CI, examples, and license documentation.

Near-Term Improvements

• Split the current workbench into a TypeScript frontend and a local service adapter while preserving the hosted GitHub Pages demo.
• Move browser-heavy helpers into Web Workers and later Rust/WASM modules.
• Raster-plot digitization for scanned datasheets.
• More validators for gate charge, diode curves, and switching-test conditions.
• ngspice batch smoke tests for generated starter decks, followed by waveform metric extraction and optional adapters for PSpice/HSPICE/Xyce/QSPICE when local tools are available.
• Smoothing and charge-based capacitance functions for the ABM emitter.
• Parameter-fitting helpers that use measured double-pulse waveforms.

Later Model Families

• Lab-fitted power diode behavioral and electrothermal starters.
• IGBT starter models.
• BJT and signal diode model starters.
• Guided tool panels for gate-drive, thermal, double-pulse, and parasitic calculations.
• Electrothermal ABM models.
• Verilog-A/OpenVAF model emitters when license and toolchain boundaries are clear.
• Library-quality example devices whose datasheet data is explicitly redistributable.
