Virtual Breadboard For Macos

Use pic32prog utility to program the flash code. Fubarino in bootloader mode will appear as a virtual COM port on your computer. You will need to know the exact device name to specify for pic32prog (typically /dev/ACM0 on Linux, something like COM12 on Windows, /dev/tty.usbmodemfa131 on Mac OS X).

  • To build and run the LCD demo, follow these steps.

    Download the binary RetroBSD package for Fubarino from here: retrobsd-fubarino-2015-05-19.zip

    Alternatively, you can build everything from sources. Follow instructions on page: install-fubarino

  • Transfer the Unix kernel on to the Fubarino. Connect the board via microUSB cable to your computer. To enter a bootloader mode, press the PRG key first, hold it, then press the RESET key. The LED will now flash and your Fubarino is ready to accept new code. Use pic32prog utility to program the flash code. Fubarino in bootloader mode will appear as a virtual COM port on your computer. You will need to know the exact device name to specify for pic32prog (typically /dev/ACM0 on Linux, something like COM12 on Windows, /dev/tty.usbmodemfa131 on Mac OS X).

    Use proper binary for your operating system (included into above retrobsd-fubarino-2015-05-19.zip package):

    • pic32prog.exe - for Windows
    • linux32/pic32prog - for 32-bit Linux
    • linux64/pic32prog - for 64-bit Linux
    • macos/pic32prog - for Mac OS X.

    Unpack the package, go to retrobsd-fubarino-g226 directory and run command (say, for 64-bit Linux):

    For Windows, it should be like:

    On Mac OS X:

    You should see:

    Perfect! You have installed RetroBSD on your Fubarino board.

  • Now transfer the filesystem image sdcard.img on to a SD card using a USB-to-SD reader. On Windows, use Win32DiskImager utility. On Linux or Mac OS X, run:

    where XYZ is a name of SD card on your computer (use lsblk or 'diskutil list' to obtain).

    Once that is done remove the SD card from card reader and plug it into your Fubarino's SD slot. Your RetroBSD system is ready to run.

  • Insert Fubarino board into breadboard, centered. Use 5-wire cable to connect the LCD module to appropriate signals of Fubarino board, according to the following table and picture:

    LCD moduleFubarino
    CS16
    WR17
    Data18
    GndGND
    Vcc3.3V
  • Connect USB cable to Fubarino and to your computer. Fubarino console will appear as a virtual COM port on your computer. Use any terminal emulation program (like putty on Windows or minicom on Linux) to connect to this virtual COM port at baud rate 115200. Press <Enter> to start RetroBSD. On Login prompt, enter 'root'. Password is empty:

    Congratulations! You just started Unix on your breadboard!
  • Go to C examples directory and build LED demo:

    It will take a few seconds. Now start the demo:You should see something like this:To stop the demo, press ^C.
  • You can modify the source file lcd6.c with one of available editors: vi, med or re. Use 'make lcd6' to recompile. Full sources of the demo are available on GitHub: lcd6.c

Pro version licence $19.99 (support until Dec-31)

Simulator for Arduino is the most full featured Arduino Simulator available at the present time (watch the latest video below).

Breadboard

The benefits and features of the Arduino Simulator are:

  • The ability to teach and demonstrate the inner workings of an Arduino sketch
  • Test out a sketch without the hardware, or prior to purchasing hardware
  • Debug a sketch
  • Demonstrate a project to a potential customer
  • Develop a complicated sketch faster than using the hardware
For

Download the free version below with a short delay timer on loading a sketch, and when ready upgrade to the Pro Version. Simulator for Arduino Pro Version is currently used in many countries over six continents. The download consists of a zip file containing a setup.exe file which installs an exe file, help files, images and examples. It is designed for the Arduino Uno, Mega and most other common Arduino boards and does the following:

  • Steps through the program line by line. If a new line is selected, the program will continue from that point.
  • Performs digitalWrite, digitalRead and PinMode for pins 0-53
  • analogRead for pins 0-16 and analogWrite for digital pins 0-53
  • Emulates Serial, LCD output, Ethernet, Servo, SD card, EEPROM, SoftSerial,SPI, Wire
  • If,while,for,switch, do whileloop functionality
  • Subroutines (multi-level) with arguments
  • View variables in real-time
  • Step Into, Step Over, Step Out of or Run mode
  • Ability to edit sketch or open in Arduino IDE
  • Tabs for separate files in the sketch
  • Context-sensitive help
  • 2 and 4 line LCD support only with improvised CGRAM
  • 2 dimensional arrays (without initialisation)
  • BreakPoint now with a conditional option
  • load custom libraries automatically after setting the Library Directory
  • Change the font, size and style of the Simulator
  • Advanced watch for easy variable viewing
  • Minimize mode for demo/training
  • Limited support for custom libraries
  • Limited support for pointer and structures

Limitations :

  • Pointers not implemented - some sketches with pointers may run but generally pointers don't work
  • Custom Libraries, structures,classes and enums may or may not work
  • Other minor issues to do with complicated C++ commands
  • Firmata needs work
  • Mouse object will run but not yet implemented
  • typdef function pointers not implemented
  • MAC,iOS interface not implemented
  • simple typdefs work but typedef with enum or structs to be implemented

The list price for Simulator for Arduino will be around $50 for v2.00. For the pre-release stage, the Pro version is available at a discount which will be increased gradually as milestones are reached, and a discount renewal is available when the support period page expires. This rewards early adopters.
