    PICSimLab - Prog. IC Simulator Lab.

    PICSimLab - Prog. IC Simulator Lab.

    PICSimLab is a realtime emulator for PIC, Arduino, STM32, ESP32, ...

    PICSimLab is a realtime emulator of development boards with MPLABX/avr-gdb debugger integration. PICSimLab supports microcontrollers from picsim, simavr, uCsim, qemu-stm32, qemu-esp32, and gpsim. PICSimLab has integration with MPLABX/Arduino IDE for programming the microcontroller's boards. As the purpose of PICSimLab is to emulate real hardware it does not have any source code editing support. For code editing and debugging the same tools used for a real board should be used with PICSimLab, such as MPLABX, Arduino IDE, or VSCode with PlatformIO. PICSimLab supports several devices (spare parts) that can be connected to the boards for simulation. Such as example LEDs and push buttons for simple outputs and inputs and some more complex ones like the ethernet shield w5500 for internet connection or the color graphic display ili9340 with touchscreen. The complete list of parts can be accessed in the documentation. Documentation at https://lcgamboa.github.io/picsimlab_docs/stable/
