Arduino Simulation With Proteus

This document provides instructions for simulating an Arduino board using the Proteus software. It describes how to add the key components of an Arduino - an ATmega328P microcontroller, crystal, and capacitors - to the schematic. It then demonstrates how to wire the components, load a sample "Blink" code onto the simulated microcontroller, and run the simulation to see the output pin blinking on and off every second as programmed.

Arduino Simulation with Proteus

We 'll show how to simulate the celebrated open-source electronics prototyping platform Arduino with Proteus .You can find other informations, project files and arduino software at its homepage.

Let 's run ISIS Schematic:

To simulate the core of Arduino platform we need only a few components: the atmega328P Microcontroller, a Crystal and two Capacitors.Let' s look for these devices in the library:

Click on "P" button and write atmega as keyword:

Double click on the model and this appears under Devices panel:

Same operations for the Crystal and Capacitor:

Now we have all the components in the panel Devices:

Let 's click on the components and place them on the layout:

Right click on the component and select Rotate .. to place it correctly:

Double click on the crystal and set the frequency to 16Mhz:

Double click on capacitors and set the values:

Let 's start wiring the circuit:

Click on "Terminals Mode" on the left toolbar and select the ground reference

Now select the power source

Connect the pins to the power source as in the picture below:

Finally we get the Arduino schematic:

After downloading the software from the Arduino site run the program:

The Arduino main window appears

Let 's choose to load the blink example from File menu:

The window shows the C code of the program:

This program simply turn on and turn off a led with a period of 1 second for every function.Let's save the program in a directory of our choice:

The program is saved in pde format:

Come back to the program and click on the Verify button to check the correct syntax:

Once the syntax has been verified make sure that "Arduino Duemilanove or Nano w/ ATmega 328" is selected from Tools/Board menu:

Now click on the Upload button

At the end of the process an error message appears, because Arduino board is not connected, we can ignore it:

Instead make sure that applet directory has been created in the directory of the pde file:

Let's open applet directory and we can see the hex file generated:

Now come back to the Arduino schematic and double click on the microcontroller, in the window that pops up select the hex file:

Select the following settings:

We' re ready to simulate.Click on play button in the bottom left corner of thelayout:

license VSM for AVR is required to enable the simulation.As result of running program the pin 19 of microcontroller start blinking with a period of 1 second

Some Arduino examples are available in the microcontrollers category
