Our verdict
Proteus is widely used in Indian polytechnic and engineering labs for simulating 8051, PIC, AVR and Arduino projects alongside the circuit. Labcenter's free demo lets you explore schematic capture and PCB layout without a time limit, but you cannot save your own work and microcontroller simulation of your own designs is not allowed (only the bundled samples). The download link is emailed and expires after two hours. Full use needs a paid or college licence — never use cracked copies.
