To convert other file formats to the "Logic Gate Schematic" file type, you need software like Multimedia Logic or a similar tool.


About LGI files

An .lgi file is a digital logic circuit project created primarily by Multimedia Logic (Softronics), a classic tool used for teaching and simulating boolean algebra and logic gates. These files contain visual schematics of digital systems - ranging from simple AND/OR gate arrays to complex Arithmetic Logic Units (ALUs) - complete with switches, LEDs, and wiring configurations.

While indispensable for computer architecture students, the .lgi format presents significant friction in modern workflows. It is a legacy format tied to Windows-centric software that hasn't seen major updates in years. Users frequently struggle to open these files on macOS, Linux, or modern Windows 11 environments without compatibility tweaks. Furthermore, the format is proprietary; you cannot simply import an .lgi file into modern alternatives like Logisim or LabVIEW without rebuilding the circuit from scratch.

For sharing designs with professors, including them in lab reports, or archiving older projects, the most pragmatic solution is converting .lgi files to universally accessible formats. Converting to PDF preserves the vector schematic for printing, while PNG or JPG is ideal for embedding diagrams into Word documents or web pages.

Convert.Guru analyzes your LGI file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted LGLI, DIG, GCG and CIRC files.

The LGI Converter Story

The history of Convert.Guru began over 25 years ago in California with Tom Simondi’s file-format database. A former contributor to Space Shuttle development and a software pioneer of the 1980s, Simondi established a trusted resource for file type analysis that was even referenced by Microsoft Windows XP. Today, we use modern technology to process and convert thousands of file formats while continually improving our LGI converter.
