#113149 - worthlessness Responding to: ???'s previous message |
The citeria for an emulator is that it exactly mimic the device it emulates. So to emulate you must "emulate some of what happens between CPU cycles". For instance if someone employ memory mapoped I/O that access must be timed the same as with the actual chip or the emulation is worthless.
I'm quite obviously not a hardware guru, and this tool is designed to help writing software on the 8051. In order to simulate timing problems related to talking with other chips, those other chips would also need to be simulated, which is a completely different project alltogether. Saying that the emulation is worthless without that is a bit harsh (especially since I've already managed to debug some of my 8051 assembly with this simulator). |
