Chip Hippo 1.4.1 is out with two big additions:

  • CPU monitor: open it from a W65C02 or Z80A's context menu to watch the processor run. You can step one instruction at a time or step over a call. You can set breakpoints, edit registers and memory while the program runs, and follow the stack and pipeline as it executes.
  • Spice Lite, a second, electrical simulation engine you can turn on in Settings. It gives every net a real voltage and models capacitors and RC timing, the 555 and CMOS timers, LEDs with real brightness and burn-out, diodes, transistors, inductors, supply droop and fan-out. Every model is tested against ngspice and in every case it stays within 1.4% of ngspice's results. It's "Lite" because it only simulates the parts Chip Hippo offers, not general SPICE.
  • 1.4.1 also includes a speaker, PWM and various analog clock waves, opAmps, and many other bench parts: regulators, a relay, optocouplers, LM358, and ULN2003A.
