Note: these instruments already be created by the new custom chips API (see #301).

However, there's a very limited analog simulation in Wokwi, so in the current state, I'm not sure how a multimeter would be useful?

In Arduino is useful for preventing components from burning, testing analog outputs , measuring voltage and current supplied to engines, measuring outputs supplied to actuators reading voltages reading from sensors...

I understand why it is useful, but what I'm saying is that we don't simulate things like current flowing through an LED, so the multimeter won't be able to show you things like current consumption or the voltage on the LED with the current simulation method.

It'll only be able to show very voltage in some specific situations (e.g. voltage of a potentiometer output). It might make more sense to look at this when #203 is done.

Hi, I will also vote for this feature, for educational purpose, being able to measure voltage on the potentiometer is important for my students. what will it require to add at least a voltmeter?

urish commented 1 year ago

Hi @abaratz, as a workaround, you could try using the community contributed scope chip, e.g. https://wokwi.com/projects/377377869110945793

Thanks uri. I didn’t see it useful since it doesn’t give you the currrent voltage reading just the min and max reached values. Tx avi Sent from my iPhoneOn 1 Oct 2023, at 13:00, Uri Shaked @.***> wrote: Hi @abaratz, as a workaround, you could try using the community contributed scope chip, e.g. https://wokwi.com/projects/377377869110945793
