Simulator Overview
© 2006 Microchip Technology Inc. DS51519B-page 221
The following functions and peripherals are affected by simulation on instruction cycle
boundaries:
• Clock pulse inputs smaller than one cycle cannot be simulated even though timer
prescalers are capable of accepting clock pulse inputs smaller than one cycle.
• PWM output pulse resolution less than one cycle is not supported.
• Compares greater than 8 bits are not supported.
• In unsynchronized counter mode, clock inputs smaller than one cycle cannot be
used.
• The oscillator waveform on RC0/RC1 pins cannot be shown.
• Serial I/O is not simulated.
16.4.3 I/O Timing
External timing in the simulator is processed only once during each instruction cycle.
Transient signals, such as a spikes on MCLR
smaller than an instruction cycle, will not
be simulated.
Note: Not all peripherals listed here are currently supported by the simulator.
Note: Stimulus is injected into the simulator prior to the next instruction cycle.
