Is it fisible to simulate in PSpice the program of a uC?

fisible

Suppose I want to emulate the program of a PIC. Is it possible to do it in a project of Capture or PCAD? Or I have to build equivalent circuitry to the program? Has anyone experience on this?
Thanks,
D.

i do not believe it is possible with PSpice. the software you are looking for is called Proteus. comes highly recommended, it's great!

It would be (IMHO) almost impossible to create a microcontroller model that would simulate at any respectable speed within PSPICE, XSPICE, etc. without extensive customisation to the simulation engine itself.

AFAIK Proteus is the only capture/simulation package that can handle MCU simulation.

you can write functional model of your program in VHDL or Verilog and put it in Orcad for simulation

I think functional verification is doable. At transistor level, it's not feasible.
