About

SimulIDE is a simple real time electronic circuit simulator, intended for hobbyist or students to learn and experiment with analog and digital electronic circuits and microcontrollers. It supports PIC, AVR , Arduino and other MCUs and MPUs. Simulation speed is one of the most relevant characteristics of this simulator. It has been deeply optimized to achieve excellent speeds and low cpu usage. SimulIDE also features a code Editor and Debugger for Arduino, GcBasic, PIC asm, AVR asm and others. It is possible to write, compile and do basic debugging with breakpoints, watch registers and global variables. Features: Analog and Digital components Microcontrollers Code Editor Debugger Subcircuits DIP/Logic Symbols Circuit Animation Basic Shapes Oscilloscope Logic Analyzer Serial Port Connection Serial Monitor
