Simulator User's Guide

This section describes how the functionality of AVR Studio's built in simulator varies from default behavior as described in the AVR Studio User's Guide.

The simulator supports all existing AVR devices. It simulates not only the CPU, but all the on-chip I/O modules and memory, as well as the I/O ports. Special care has been taken to ensure proper simulation of the device, and there are only small differences between simulated and actual behaviour. The simulator does not connect to outside hardware and has to be stimulated from pre-calculated stimuli files. But as the device is simulated entirely inside the PC memory, the user has extended visibility of all the on-chip functions.

Platform Auto Detect
If AVR Studio does not succeed in identifying an Emulator, it selects the built-in Simulator instead.

Please note that section describes only how the simulator deviates from the default behavior of AVR Studio. For a description of the basic functionality, please refer to AVR Studio User's Guide.
