Can any one differentiate the debugger and emulator?
 

a debugger is for debugging the system.
you can monitor the signals at any point but more in an user friendly way.

an emulator is used as a substitute for the main controller or eprom(rom) etc..
and you can control the ucontroller in any way.
it can debug at ucontroller hw level.

whereas a debugger is for external signal debugging only.

both 'debugger' and 'emulator ' are explained with hardware as reference.

there exists a software 'debugger ' and softaware 'emulator(simulator)' which is notmentioned here.
