Description

The MPLAB® Mindi™ Analog Simulator streamlines the process of circuit design and mitigates associated risks by allowing users to simulate analog circuits before moving on to hardware prototyping. Utilizing a SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation environment, this tool offers the flexibility of employing SPICE or piecewise linear modeling, catering to a broad spectrum of simulation requirements. In addition to its robust simulation capabilities, the interface incorporates exclusive model files from Microchip, enabling accurate modeling of specific Microchip analog components alongside standard circuit devices. This versatile simulation tool can be easily installed and operated on your local PC, ensuring that once it is downloaded, an Internet connection is unnecessary for its operation. Consequently, users benefit from quick and precise analog circuit simulations that do not rely on external servers, enhancing the overall efficiency of the design process. Users can confidently run simulations directly on their computers, experiencing the reliability and speed that comes with offline capabilities.

Description

Sensbench is an online simulator designed for circuits and microcontrollers, making it an excellent tool for learning, prototyping, and testing various platforms such as Arduino, ESP32, and Raspberry Pi Pico. Users can arrange virtual boards and components on a digital breadboard, connect circuits, modify sketches, compile firmware, and execute it in an emulated microcontroller while monitoring serial outputs and the behavior of components. The platform also offers capabilities for SPICE analog simulation, as well as mixed digital-analog circuits. Alongside comprehensive guided examples, it features virtual components like sensors, displays, LEDs, and relays to enhance the user experience. An innovative AI builder can transform a written project request into a detailed parts list, wiring diagram, and firmware, while an MCP server allows compatible AI clients to interact with the workbench seamlessly. The core functionalities of Sensbench are available for free through a web browser, though users can opt for additional AI credits and subscription plans for enhanced project features. Furthermore, Sensbench provides physical project kits that come with pre-flashed boards and instructional guides, including specialized kits designed for integration with Home Assistant via local Wi-Fi. This combination of virtual and physical resources makes Sensbench a versatile choice for both beginners and advanced users alike.
