Microcontroller simulation is where Proteus truly leads the way. Advanced students can then work with more complex circuitry and use graphs to perform a host of more detailed analyses such as frequency, Fourier or distortion.
As students advance they can use basic meters to take measurements and then be introduced to instrumentation such as an oscilloscope or logic analyser for analysis. The ability to interact with a running simulation in Proteus by pressing buttons, ramping POTs or flicking switches makes it ideally suited for engaging students in learning electronic theory.Īt introductory levels, simple animations for voltage levels on pins and current flow can be turned on to help students visualise what is happening. Together with our world class mixed-mode SPICE simulation engine Proteus provides a safe, fast and immersive learning environment for students. Placing and wiring is very intuitive and with tens of thousands of components to simulate, curiosity and creativity can be encouraged in equal measure. The Proteus schematic capture program is an experimental canvas for students.
