Recently Python has become relevant for many tasks in a variety of disciplines leading to the development of various open source libraries. Our contribution to that cluster of tools is E2SCAPy, a useful program for the symbolic computation of analog circuits. The most appealing feature of E2SCAPy lies in its ability to solve large circuits with several nodes in few milliseconds due to its DDD algorithm, which drives to the fast solution of the system of equations of the circuit. To show the E2SCAPy performance, three nonclassical circuit examples are reported: a WTA/LTA filter, a Memristor and a Fractional Integrator.
