<p dir="ltr">I don't think there's anything out there that accomplishes that. Closest thing I can think of is Solidworks Electrical ($$$$) but it lacks simulation.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Faced with the same situation I'd use KiCAD for schematic capture and label the crap out of everything and use falstad circuit sim if the analysis is rudimentary or one of the many spice variants. </p>
<p dir="ltr">The only free/opensource thing I can think of to do full color wiring and harness diagrams would be Inkscape and a metric assload of time. It is a very nice vectorgraphics package but you'll be drawing every component, wire, etc. by "hand" and it has a fairly steep learning curve.</p>

<br>
Part A is block diagrams with a name for each block and maybe a place to<br>
write it's function in text. Color support for the interconnects would<br>
be nice.<br>
<br>
Part B is maybe a Spice-like circuit analysis, drawn from the block<br>
diagram level and drill down to each individual IC and component. it<br>
would be great if it has a library of IC's and components with their<br>
electrical characteristics available. Thermocouples are involved, as<br>
well as their analog voltages being measured and converted into an I2C<br>
signal for reading by a Beaglebone Black or Raspberry Pi 2. Color<br>
support (and stripes) for the actual wires would be very nice.<br>
<br>
Rubber banding of wiring and connections is mandatory. :)<br>
<br>
So what do you guys suggest so that I may make pretty documents for<br>
these circuits?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
