This article serves as the definitive guide to simulating the ESP32 in Proteus. We will explore what works, what doesn't, how to set up your first simulation, advanced techniques for virtual peripherals, and best practices to avoid common pitfalls. 1.1 Is Native ESP32 Simulation Available? As of the latest versions (Proteus 8.9 and 9 SP0), native, perfect simulation of the ESP32 is not fully integrated in the way that ATmega328P or PIC16F877A are. However, Labcenter Electronics has been steadily adding ESP32 support through their VSM (Virtual System Modelling) technology.
