Could Xyce be used in OpenRAM? #49

Xyce (zīs, rhymes with "spice") is an open source, SPICE-compatible, high-performance analog circuit simulator, capable of solving extremely large circuit problems by supporting large-scale parallel computing platforms.

Does it make sense to support Xyce as a simulator in OpenRAM?

Absolutely. This has been on my private to-do list for a long time. I've mostly been lazy due to the dependencies of Xyce. The list is pretty long and there was no package that I know of...

We currently support ngspice, hspice, xa. ngspice is pretty good for parallel evaluation of the BSIM models, but it would be interesting to compare what is best overall.
