EMULATORS

eliahu c.

Hi all
What is an emulator exactly ?
how is it used with KEIL compilers or any other embedded compiler ?

Thanks
Elico

    An emulator is almost like a simulator
    a simulator is a poor substitute for an emulator.

    Today, an emulator is normally just a standard microcontroller
    in the '51 worls an emulator is a thingy you plug in instead of your chip. It behaves like the chip while letting you see what Per describes above. However some of the more advanced modern derivatives notably SILabs (I know none other) have the emulation circuitry built in.
