THE ROLE OF VIRTUAL SIMULATORS IN LEARNING AND DEVELOPING ARDUINO-BASED ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS
Keywords:
Arduino, microcontroller, simulator, electronic projects, Virtual Breadboard, Arduino Pins, Virtronics, code testing.Abstract
This article analyzes various virtual simulators used for learning and working with Arduino and other microcontrollers. Simulators help beginners understand programming concepts and the functioning of electronic components, while also enabling advanced users to develop and test more complex projects. The paper discusses platforms such as the Virtronics Arduino Simulator, Arduino Pins, Virtual Breadboard, and others, highlighting their advantages and limitations.
