Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, I am going to show you How to add new Library in Proteus 8 software. As we all know that Proteus doesn't have all the components in its database so if you want to add a new component in Proteus and want to use it in your simulation, then you have to add or install the Proteus library first.
On our blog, we have posted many Proteus Libraries for Engineering Students, I have given Proteus library zip file download link in each post and I hope you guys have enjoyed those libraries. But I was constantly getting this complaint from students that they are unable to add Proteus Library, especially in Proteus 8 software. So, that's why I thought of writing this tutorial, although it says Proteus 8 but I will also show you How to add library in Proteus 7. I have shown the same procedure in the below video, so must watch it.
So, let's get started with How to add or install Proteus Library:
We have downloaded the Proteus Library zip file in Step 1 and now we need to install it in Proteus software. For installation, we don't need to execute any file, instead, we simply need to copy & paste these Proteus Library Files into the library folder of Proteus.
Note:
So, that was all for today. I hope now you can quite easily add new Library in Proteus 8. If you have any questions, then ask in comments. I will try to help you out. :)

Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. In today's tutorial, I am going to share a new version of Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus i.e. version 2.0. I have already posted the First Version of the Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus in which you can use the TestPin and if it's HIGH then a single heartbeat pattern will start. So, if you use that library, you will always get the same result for your heartbeat. But in this 2nd version, I have added variable heartbeat depending on the value of TestPin. I will show you in detail, how to do it.
I have also posted a project Heart Beat Counter using Arduino in which I have shown you How you can use this sensor and count your Heart Beat. So, let me show you How you can use this new Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus.
So, that was all about Heart Beat Sensor Library V2.0 for Proteus. I hope you will enjoy it. Will meet you guys in the next tutorial. Till then take care and have fun !!! :)
Hello everyone, I hope you all are doing great. Today, I am going to share a new Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus. Using this Library, now you can easily simulate your Heart Beat Sensor in Proteus ISIS. I am quite excited while sharing this Library as it has never been designed before. All credit goes to the TEP team for creating this awesome Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus. You should also have a look at this Second Version of Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus.
Heart Beat Sensor is used to measure the Heart Beat Count of a person. When you are using a Heart Beat Sensor in hardware then there's a chance that you won't get the same results as this simulation because the placement of a finger on this sensor matters a lot. If you haven't placed your finger correctly then you may get different results. This Proteus Sensor will give you the ideal result means the finger is perfectly placed on the sensor. So, let's get started with Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus:
So, that's all for today. I hope you have enjoyed this awesome Heart Beat Sensor Library for Proteus. Let me know about your feedback in the comments. Till next tutorial, take care and have fun !!! :)
This project is about Automatic Street Light. You must have examined on your streets that the street lights turn ON at night while they turn OFF in the day. When I was a child then I think that someone turns ON the switch in the day and then turns it OFF at night but that's really not the case. :P
In fact, these lights are automatic and have a sensor in them which is known as LDR sensor. This sensor is used to detect the light intensity so if there's sun light in the surroundings then it simply turn OFF the street light and if there's no sun light then it turns ON the street light and that's how Automatic Street Light works. I have designed its simulation in Proteus ISIS software which you can download below. So, let's get started with Automatic Street Light Project in Proteus ISIS.
Note:
So, that's all for today. I hope you have enjoyed this Automatic Street Light Project in Proteus ISIS. Will meet you guys in next tutorial. Till then take care and have fun !!! :)

Hello friends, I hope you all are fine and having fun with your lives. Today, I am going to share a list of New Proteus Libraries for Engineering Students. I have shared many Proteus Libraries till now but they all are randomly spread in blog posts, so I thought to post all those Proteus Libraries links in today's post. So that engineering students can get benefit from these awesome libraries. You should also have a look at How to add new Library in Proteus 8 Professional, if you are new to Proteus.
You can download them from their respective links and then can use them in your Proteus Projects. These modules are all compatible with Arduino and PIC Microcontroller. So, if you got into any trouble regarding these New Proteus Libraries, you can ask in the comments and I will try my best to resolve your issues. So, let's get started with these New Proteus Libraries for Engineering Students. If you don't have the Proteus software then you should read How to Install and Download Proteus Software?
Note:You should also have a look at these Proteus Libraries as well:
Here's a video in which I have explained all these Proteus Libraries:
First of all, you should download Arduino Library for Proteus. Using this Library you can easily simulate Arduino boards in Proteus and can design any kind of circuit. This Arduino Library is the first one in this Proteus Libraries list. Once you install this Arduino Library for Proteus, you will be able to easily simulate Arduino boards in Proteus:

GPS is used in almost every navigation project. GPS is used for the detection of user location. It works in NMEA coding and gives longitude and latitude. Most of the GPS modules are operated through Serial Port i.e. they give data via serial ports. We have designed this GPS module for Proteus using which you can easily simulate this GPS module. I have skm53 in mind while designing this GPS Library for Proteus but still, you can use it for any kind of GPS module because most of them work on NMEA coding so all NMEA-coded modules follow this GPS module. The Proteus library zip file download link is as follows:

Note:
Next is the GSM Library for Proteus. Using this Library you can easily simulate the GSM Module in Proteus. This GSM module is used for SMS sending and receiving. We can send SMS or receive SMS using this GSM module. There are different types of GSM modules available in the market. I have designed the library of the GSM Module named SIM900D in Proteus. I hope you guys are gonna enjoy it. This GSM module works on AT Commands and the list of these AT commands is given in the below post from where you will download it. You can download Proteus Library for GSM, by clicking the below button:

Note:
XBee modules are used for wireless communication. They work on radio frequency (RF) and are very helpful in those projects where wireless communication is required. Using XBee modules we can communicate between nodes etc. We have designed XBee Library for Proteus which you can download by clicking the below button. The XBee module works on Serial protocol and can send data wirelessly. In the below post, I have also shown you how to send data between two XBees. If you got into some trouble then ask in the comments below and I will resolve them.
These XBee modules are not fully functional because we are still working on them. Rite now only TX and RX pins are working but soon we will update all other pins too. So, stay tuned. :) You can download the Proteus library, by clicking the below button:
Download XBee Library for Proteus
Note:
Bluetooth modules are also used for wireless communication just like XBee modules. But Bluetooth modules use Bluetooth as a way of communication instead of RF. These Bluetooth modules are used in those projects where low-range communication is required because they don't work in high range. These Bluetooth modules also work on Serial Protocol and you have to connect them with your device and get your data. This Library includes two Bluetooth modules, which are:
You can download the Proteus library by clicking the below button:

DS1307 module is an RTC module that is used in projects where the current time is required. This module is basically a clock and you have to program it for once and then it keeps on ticking forever. These are used mostly in attendance projects and are quite helpful. Proteus already has this module in its database but it's not much attractive and looks like a simple module. So, we have given it a stylish look and it's just a click away from you.
I have also posted a project DS1307 Arduino-based Digital Clock in Proteus in which I have shown how to use this DS1307 in Proteus ISIS. I will also post a tutorial soon in which I will interface this DS1307 sensor with PIC Microcontroller and 8051 Microcontroller but you have to wait a little. :P I hope you guys are gonna enjoy it. We have designed its Proteus library, zip file download link is given below:

LCDs are available in Proteus in very simple form so we have done a little work and designed New LCD Library for Proteus using which you can now get these stylish LCDs in Proteus. As you can see in the image, these new LCDs now look more attractive and more realistic. I hope you guys will enjoy them. As functionality is concerned they are exactly the same as the normal Proteus LCDs but they are different in looks so you can use the same code for these new LCDs as well.
In this below link, I have also interfaced this NEW LCD with an Arduino board which is also given in the below link for download. This example will help you in understanding how to use this LCD. This Library includes two such LCDs, which are:

Note:
PIR Sensors are used for motion detection. They work on thermal detection, they detect human heat and then detect the presence of the human body in the surroundings. They are used for security purposes and are mostly installed in projects like Home Security Systems, Bank Security Systems etc.
As we can't detect the real motion in Proteus ISIS so that's why I have placed a TestPin in this PIR Sensor. When you give +5V to this pin, the sensor will act as its detecting motion and when it's ground(0V), it will act as no motion detected. We have designed its Proteus Library and the proteus library zip file download link is as follows:
Download PIR Sensor Library for Proteus
Gas Sensors are used for Gas Leakage Detection. It's an essential sensor for most industries because Gas Leakages in industry cause fatal incidents. So using these Gas Sensors one can easily detect the Gas Leakage. We have designed their Proteus Library using which you can easily simulate these Gas Sensors in Proteus. This Gas Sensor Library includes the following Gas Sensors:

Flame Sensors are used for Fire Detection and are normally used for Security purposes. Flame Sensors are best for Fire Detection. So, you must get an idea about its importance. They are used in almost all kinds of projects where fire security is required.
As we can't actually produce Fire in the Proteus environment that's why I have placed a TestPin which will be used for the detection of Fire. If this TestPin is HIGH then it means there's fire and if it's LOW then it means there's no fire around the sensor. You can download Proteus Library for Flame Sensor by clicking the below button:
Download Flame Sensor Library for Proteus
Vibration Sensors are used for vibration detection. They are mostly used in those projects where vibration detection is necessary like we can use it for security purposes and can place them on doors and windows. So if someone tried to break the doors or windows then the vibrations will be detected by this sensor and a buzzer can trigger.
Moreover, you can also place them on heavy machinery to detect whether there are vibrations in those machines or not. I have also used this sensor in my project GSM-based Home Security System. You can download this Vibration Sensor Library for Proteus by clicking the below button:
Download Vibration Sensor Library for ProteusFlex Sensors are actually used for detecting the bending angle. So, its normally used in projects where you need to detect the fingers bending. For example, I once designed a project in which I have to use sign language and then convert it into words, so in that project, I used Flex Sensors on all of my fingers & thumb and then by detecting the bending, I converted the sign language to text.
So, I have designed the Flex Sensor Library for Proteus and I hope you are gonna enjoy it and are gonna use it in your projects. You can download this Proteus Library by clicking the below button:
