Running and Verifying the Simulation

The is a Hall Effect water flow sensor often used in Arduino projects to measure liquid flow rates. Since it is not a native component in the standard Proteus database, you must install an external library or use a pulse generator to simulate its output. 📥 Finding the Library yfs201 proteus library

Which are you planning to pair with the sensor?

void setup() Serial.begin(9600); // Attach interrupt to Pin 2 (Interrupt 0 on Uno) pinMode(2, INPUT_PULLUP); attachInterrupt(digitalPinToInterrupt(2), pulseCounter, FALLING); Paste the file path into the field and click OK

When you run the simulation, you may need to adjust the "flow rate" by clicking on the sensor and changing its frequency or pulse properties to mimic different water speeds.

Before starting the simulation, it is essential to understand how the physical sensor communicates with microcontrollers like Arduino. Since it is not a native component in

In Proteus, your virtual YFS201 will generate a virtual frequency that your microcontroller code can interpret.

: Attach VCC pins to the +5V power rail tool and GND pins to the GROUND tool rail in Proteus. Arduino Code for Simulation Testing

While simulation provides consistent pulses, physical sensors may need calibration for precise flow rates (typically pulses per second per liter/min).

Unlike a simple switch, the YFS201 library contains a called Frequency or FlowRate . When you run the simulation, the OUT pin toggles at this frequency.
