CppSim has been actively used since 2002 in a variety of research and industrial projects around the globe. The tutorials below correspond to system simulations that were developed in the course of teaching and performing research in circuit design at MIT. As such, they represent systems that were actively used to understand complicated circuit architecture issues, and were, in some cases, verified against actual measured data. More tutorials will be added in the future.
Note that some tutorials require you to install their associated libraries using the CppSim Import tool. Please refer to the given tutorial document (i.e., associated PDF file) for details on this issue.
