    Default PBP Simulation

    Quick question:-

    I have seen here some screen shots of a simulator (?) running PBP Code, or maybe hex output of same.

    Any one know what this is or where I can find one similar..... Might be the way to go to try my little bits of code before committing to board.

    Thank you for reading

    Andy

    Hi,
    I suspect that what you've seen is Proteus VSM from Labcenter. I'd love to have it but €800 for the 8bit bundle (PIC12, 16, 18 series) is bit steep for me. I keep reading good things about their schematic capture and PCB design tools as well.

    /Henrik.

    Andy,

    I use the PIC Simulator IDE, PIC10 Simulator IDE, PIC16 Simulator IDE and the PIC18 Simulator IDE from OshonSoft.com.

    Very inexpensive (29 Euros) for all of them including AVR, Z80 and 8085.

    They wont simulate PBP (or its hex) code. However, they all include in the price their own BASIC compiler (not compatible with but much more fully featured then PBP) and IDE (with which you can simulate both their source BASIC or the generated ASM code).
    Why pay for overpriced toys when you can have
    professional grade tools for FREE!!!

    Well that's not true. I use these to run my PBP compiled code in. You just load the generated hex file. It will actually run any PIC compiler's output hex file because it it a PIC MCU simulator. However you cannot debug PBP source code but you can use the dissambler to generate ASM and debug that.

    Yeah... I would imagine ANY simulator should run HEX. by nature of the beast.

    It has too....

    Am looking at them now anyway...... Proteus is nice... very nice.... but price is a no go.
