[Vivek788]

Is there any open source 8085 sim that works on linux?

 

[[xubz]]

GnuSim8085

Its in the Ubuntu Repos, If you use Ubuntu, just apt it.

thanks man.....my classmates are gonna like it..its really useful...

 

[gary4gar]

whats it exactly & whats its use?

GNUSim8085 is a simulator and assembler for the Intel 8085 Microprocessor, in GNOME environment.

 

[pannaguma]

intel 8085 is a prehistoric microprocessor, so this sim emulates the proccy, by using same hex codes, and program language. thus software emulating hardware.

ok i had a slight idea about prior to our posting, but whats its practical use now

well 8085 programming is a part of 11-12th computer science syllabus, (atleast in maharashtra). and programs written on paper can be verified, coz the sim is able to emulate EVERY part of mp8085.

8085/86 are part of Engg syllabus atleast in ECE,CSE.

 

[amitsurana]

8085 being PREHISTORIC has minimum Instruction Set. So its useful in understanding mp architecture...
its part of syllabus for CSE, ECE in 2nd year I guess..

 

[QwertyManiac]

Add I.T. to that too .. Though I don't enjoy it in particular.

 

[aditya.shevade]

Even add electronics. We have in in our 5th semester (third year)... one more year to go for me

 

[Vivek788]

we have it in 5th sem..but this s/w is not similar to the way of programmin in the kit....

Ull get free 8085 sim with "Advanced MicroProcessor" from Gaonkar.
Me too haf it in syllabus. me in 3rd yr Engg here in Kerala.

 

[Vivek788]

but that doesnt work in linux na?

 

[infra_red_dude]

8085 is still used in simple uP controlled systems. Its not obsolete. Even 8086.

 

[john3488]

8085 is not obsolete. small embedded systems dont require a P4 to do some calculations. so a simple 8085 is able to do the job.

by ramesh s gaonkar?

@Vivek788
u can try gnusim8085 for sim in Linux.also there are many such simulators in debian or ubuntu repositories.
GNUSim8085 is a graphical simulator, assembler and debugger for the
Intel 8085 microprocessor.
