What is the best embedded systems simulator

Started by alex September 20, 2007
What I ma looking for is display of chips components connections,
programmable etc. Runs on multiple Windows platforms.

You are going to have to be more specific. MPLAB simulates PICs, AVRStudio simulates AVRs, Keil tools have peripheral simulators, lots of other tools have core simulators (including GDB), then there is Skyeye, etc. etc. What is it your asking? Why did you not ask the question such that people can answer it? -- Regards, Richard. + http://www.FreeRTOS.org 13 official architecture ports, 1000 downloads per week. + http://www.SafeRTOS.com Certified by T&#4294967295;V as meeting the requirements for safety related systems.

An ICE I can be a lot more specific if you can. -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ /\/\/ chris@phaedsys.org www.phaedsys.org \/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

Do you mostly want to see a visual schematic of logic chips AND you want to run code? Simulink can show schematics and run through clocking random logic, but I don't know of any tool that can do that AND simulate MCU instructions.

Http://Www.labcenter.co.uk Their tools do it and not expensive either. -- \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ \/\/\/\/\ Chris Hills Staffs England /\/\/\/\/ /\/\/ chris@phaedsys.org www.phaedsys.org \/\/\ \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/

Three or four years ago, we had a company come in and demo a simulator for the Virtx 2 Pro with embedded PowerPC core. It simulated the complete FPGA and the processor. It took about 30 seconds to simulate one instruction. We didn't buy the tool, and I don't remember the name or the vendor. -- Jack Klein Home: http://JK-Technology.Com FAQs for comp.lang.c http://c-faq.com/ comp.lang.c++ http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/ alt.comp.lang.learn.c-c++ http://www.club.cc.cmu.edu/~ajo/docs/FAQ-acllc.html

I recently learned about this free tool that can simulate logic gates along with some PIC chips: http://tams-www.informatik.uni-hamburg.de/research/software/applets/hades/webdemos/index.html Eric
