Course Description:

This three-day course is designed to provide current users with the advanced understanding needed to become highly skilled at creating SIMPLIS models of switching power supplies.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces the release of SIMetrix/SIMPLIS 7.20. New features include:

• SystemDesigner, a set of library blocks designed especially for the simulation of digitally controlled power converters,
• New semiconductor device model extraction algorithms which support wide-bandgap devices such as GaN, and
• Expanded help content.

For additional detail please see the 7.20 Release Notes.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces the release of SIMetrix/SIMPLIS 7.1. A number of usability improvements are introduced with this latest version including a powerful Efficiency Calculator and a new Bode Plot Probe. New additions to the model library include a selection of low- and medium-voltage MOSFETs from Fairchild Semiconductor and a set of Op-amps, comparators and switches from Maxim Semiconductor. For circuits where the traditional POP and AC analysis are mathematically inapplicable, the Design Verification Module has been enhanced to include a Multi-Tone AC Analysis Mode.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces the release of SIMetrix/SIMPLIS 7.0. New features include multiple core support for multi-run and Monte Carlo simulations, a new part search/selector dialog that simplifies part discovery and component placement and significant performance improvements for both the SIMPLIS and SIMetrix simulation engines. The Design Verification Module (DVM) is now fully supported on the Windows x64 platform and offers new test objectives, measurement functions and a built-in efficiency testplan for DC-DC converters using SIMPLIS.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces the release of SIMetrix/SIMPLIS 6.2. New features include data registers for the Advanced Digital components, the selection of MOSFETs and Diodes by device ratings, and the ability to attach measurements to fixed probes. The user selected measurements are updated after each simulation on the graph viewer and, if desired, on the schematic. In addition to these features, an enhanced diagnostic error message is generated when the Periodic Operating Point analysis is unable to find the steady-state operating point of a system. For additional detail please see the Release Notes.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces today the release of the latest version of its market-leading simulation engine. Version 6.1 solidly supports our efforts to provide our power electronics customers the best tools for virtual prototyping.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces today the imminent release of the latest version of its market-leading simulation engine. The Version 6.1 release adds a number of speed and stability improvements, as well as significant expansion of the capabilities of the Design Verification Module.

This video briefly illustrates why SIMetrix/SIMPLIS is the world leading simulation tool for closed-loop power supply design.

SIMPLIS can find the steady-state Periodic Operating Point of a switching power supply much faster than running a long transient. AC analysis in SIMPLIS runs fast and requires no average models to measure a Bode Plot. Transient simulations of closed-loop power supplies in SIMPLIS are typically 10 - 50 times faster than Spice.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces today the release of the latest version of its market-leading simulation engine. Version 6.0 is a strong continuation of our efforts to support our power electronics customers in their virtual prototyping processes.

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces the release of the Design Verification Module, an add-on to the market leading SIMetrix / SIMPLIS simulation package. The Design Verification Module (DVM) enables a user to automate the execution of a suite of tests, compare the measured results with design performance specifications and generate a user-friendly test report summarizing the circuit performance of a switching power supply.
