Introduction to the MPLAB Simulator

The MPLAB Simulator is a debugging tool that allows you to test code without programming it onto a PIC32. Simple debugging, such as watching the values of variables or registers, can be performed, as well as advanced features, such as simulating inputs from a UART.


Starting a Simulator Project in MPLAB v8.63

  • Open MPLAB v8.63.
    • If a project is already open, close it by going to Project -> Close -> (the project name)
  • Start a New Project by going to Project -> Project Wizard.
  • Follow the steps in the Project Wizard.
    • Select the PIC32MX795F512L as your device.
Project Wizard Device.
    • Select the Microchip PIC32 C-Compiler Toolsuite as your Active Toolsuite. Select the MPLAB C32 C Compiler (pic32-gcc.exe) v1.1(b) from the Toolsuite Contents.
      Project Wizard Compiler.
    • Place your New Project File in a new folder.
    • Add existing files to your project folder if you have any.
    • Click Finish to create the New Project.

Sample Code

To learn how to use the Simulator, add the following sample code to your project: ...

Set the Simulator as Debugger

To run the sample code with the Simulator, ...
