I have uVision 4 (not the latest version) and my company is evaluating a unit test tool. One of the processors that the tool needs to support is the C8051F580 processor from SiLabs. The unit test tool uses uVision as the tool to load the test files into and perform a uVision simulation using our processor setup. To begin the evaluation, I tried to use one of the Keil examples, build it in uVision, then run the simulator on the code. I believe that I've configured uVision correctly for the device but when I try to run the simulator, there are no selections under the "Peripherals" tab. Am I doing something wrong or is there some additional software that needs to be downloaded for uVision to perform the simulation. Note that I did do a search on the Keil sight and found the SiLabs driver (which I installed) but nothing under the knowledge base or the forums that talked about this issue. The example I used was the "CSAMPLE" code that built without issue.
But the hardware interface does not automatically turn into the best because of free software the SILabs HW debug is very good, I know of none better.
Ah, lack of knowledge, thanks for clarification.
the SILabs HW interfaces with Keil/IAR?SDCC and can perform all operations those softwares can. What nore should I know?

Yes, same way as other manufacturer's HW does. Why SiLabs is 'best' then? Answer: Wrong, it is clearly not, it is all the same, as you found out now.
Wrong, it is clearly not, it is all the same, no, it is not, have a look at e.g. Atmel, Anlog Dedv, Nordic

Since we are comparing HW debug interfaces: Which 51 with on-chip debug hardware are you refering too?
