Tikz US-style components and other components

Question

In circuittikz there is a full library of US-style components like the +/- voltage source, directed arrow current source, etc.

As far as I can tell from the documentation, the Tikz circuit library has US resistors (var resistor IEC graphic) and US-style logic symbols, but I can't find the other symbols.

Also, the Tikz documentation doesn't seem to have any references to transistor symbols (in particular BJT's and MOSFETS), amplifiers, triacs, and many of the non-basic symbols found in circuitikz.

Does anyone know of a pre-compiled list of shapes/components designed to be compatible with the Tikz circuit library and uses similar syntax forms? This is not including the circuitikz shapes, from what I understand these libraries aren't completely compatible.

Answer 1

Since I prefer Tikz over Circuitikz I have to cope with this problem too. I use to define these shapes (and some others) in all of my documents. I can't remember where I found the voltage source one.

%+/- voltage source
\tikzset{circuit declare symbol = var voltage source}
\tikzset{set var voltage source graphic = var voltage source IEC graphic}
\tikzset{
  var voltage source IEC graphic/.style={
    circuit symbol lines,
    circuit symbol size = width 2 height 2,
    shape=generic circle IEC,
    /pgf/generic circle IEC/before background={
     \pgfgettransform\savedtransform
     \pgftransformshift{\pgfpoint{0.05\tikzcircuitssizeunit}{0\tikzcircuitssizeunit}}
     \pgftransformresetnontranslations
     \pgftransformscale{0.1\tikzcircuitssizeunit}
     \pgftext{$+$}
     \pgfsettransform\savedtransform
     \pgftransformshift{\pgfpoint{-0.06\tikzcircuitssizeunit}{0\tikzcircuitssizeunit}}
     \pgftransformresetnontranslations
     \pgftransformscale{0.1\tikzcircuitssizeunit}
     \pgftext{$-$}
     \pgfsettransform\savedtransform
    },
    transform shape
  }
}
%Arrow current source
\tikzset{circuit declare symbol = var current source}
\tikzset{set var current source graphic = var current source IEC graphic}
\tikzset{
  var current source IEC graphic/.style={
    circuit symbol lines,
    circuit symbol size = width 2 height 2,
    shape=generic circle IEC,
    /pgf/generic circle IEC/before background={
      \pgfsetarrowsend{latex}
      \pgfpathmoveto{\pgfpoint{-0.1\tikzcircuitssizeunit}{0}}
      \pgfpathlineto{\pgfpoint{0.1\tikzcircuitssizeunit}{0}}
      \pgfusepath{stroke}
    },
    transform shape
  }
}
