How to add Arduino Library for Proteus and Simulate

Arduino Projects

Arduino Uno is one of the most popular Development boards of our time. It can be

used for almost any project that one can think of. But sometimes before making an

actual circuit, it is a good idea to simulate that circuit first. Simulating the circuit

firsthand can save you from a lot of trouble. Proteus is one of the software that

does this job brilliantly. And now you can simulate an Arduino in proteus before

even implementing it in actual hardware. By the end of this post, you will know

how to add Arduino Library for Proteus and simulate Arduino projects.

You can also watch the video given below for easy reference:

STEP 1: First of all download Arduino Library from the link given below:

Download the Arduino Library For Proteus

Library Source: Find more interesting libraries at TheengineeringProjects

STEP 2: Download this file to the desktop of your PC.

STEP 3: Unzip the .zip file to the desktop of your PC.

STEP 4: Copy the two obtained files from the desktop.

STEP 5: Go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Labcenter Electronics\Proteus 7

Professional\LIBRARY

STEP 6: Paste the files here and you are done!

STEP 7: To use the Arduino Library, open proteus and click on “pick from

libraries”

STEP 2: Copy this “PWM using Arduino ” program to your Arduino IDE:

int y;
int x;

void setup()
{
pinMode(10,OUTPUT);
pinMode(A0,INPUT);
}

void loop()
{
Serial.begin(9600);
x=analogRead(A0);
y=map(x,0,1023,0,255);
analogWrite(10,y);
Serial.print("INCHES");
Serial.println(x);
delay(500);
}

STEP 6: After compilation is complete copy the HEX file path from the bottom

corner like before.

STEP 7: Now open the Proteus software and double click on Arduino. Paste the

file path and click ok

STEP 8: Run the simulation. When the simulation is running, change the

potentiometer’s wiper terminal position to control the brightness of the led. A

screenshot of the working of this project is given below.
