New device support.
SIM-636 |
PIC16F946 RCREG only has the option of "Demand", it should be a "message" based stimulus instead. |
PIC16F946 |
The following is a list of known problems. For information on common problems, error messages and limitations, please see Troubleshooting in the online help file for MPLAB SIM (hlpMPLABSIM.chm).
Building a project for the simulator under Debug mode will cause non-required resources to be used. This may cause code without proper paging or banking operations not to function in this mode for 8 bit devices.
At this time the PIC32 simulator has some variations in cycle accuracy when compared to the real silicon. The PIC32 simulator does not simulate things like the cache, pre-fetch buffer, wait states and Bus matrix divisions. The Bus matrix is fixed at 1:1 with the processor clock. This can have an effect of making algorithm timing loops appear to be slower than they are in real silicon. Each instruction is accurate in execution and timing in itself.
