Other Modules In addition to the unlimited PCB Layout and VSM Simulation software the Platinum Version also includes many supporting modules as standard, including: • Visual Designer for Arduino™ AVR®. • Advanced Simulation Features. • USB Simulation Support.
Proteus VSM for AVR Summary Proteus Virtual System Modelling (VSM) combines mixed mode SPICE circuit simulation, animated components and microprocessor models to facilitate co-simulation of complete microcontroller based designs.The 'Proteus VSM for Atmel® AVR®' product includes the following main software modules: • Professional Schematic Capture module • All of the Proteus Embedded Simulation • ProSPICE professional Simulation Engine Peripheral Libraries.
Features We believe our simulation models are the most accurate and the most complete on the market today. A summary of model capabilities is listed below: • Supports the entire instruction set. • Supports all port and other I/O pin operations. • Supports all counter/timers including seperate prescalers, capture compare and PWM modes. • Supports watchdog timer. • Supports serial U(S)ART. • Supports master slave SPI, USI and TWI serial interfaces.
Compilers Supported Third Party Compilers Proteus VSM models will fundamentally work with the exact same HEX file as you would program the physical device with. However, far more debugging information is available when using a compiler to write the firmware and providing these object files to Proteus in place of the HEX file provides a much richer working environment. We recommend you use the free Labcenter VSM Studio IDE.
