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.
Configuration of an existing circuit for use with DVM generally takes less than five minutes and the automated test configuration can save hours of work. With a few… Read more

Simplis Technologies, Inc. announces today the release of a new version of its market-leading simulation engine. While SIMPLIS has long been the leader in simulation for analog power electronics, the new SIMPLIS 5.6 incorporates Advanced Digital simulation bringing those same capabilities to a new generation of power supply designs.
SIMPLIS 5.6 allows designers of digitally controlled power supplies to effectively explore the interaction between increasingly complex digital control schemes and the resulting performance of the complete power supply system. Updating to SIMPLIS 5.6… Read more

Greenville, South Carolina (February 10, 2009) - KEMET Corporation (KEME.OB), The Capacitance Company, announced that it has released its full line of capacitor models to the SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation software, which allows Signal Integrity, Power Integrity, and board design engineers to model the decoupling scheme of a printed circuit board using the SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation software. KEMET’s new low ESR and low ESL polymer products are specifically designed for the high speed processor board level decoupling applications.
Using the SIMetrix/SIMPLIS simulation tool, design engineers… Read more

SIMPLIS makes the process of virtual prototyping a practical option for the design of switched mode power supplies in a way that has not been available in the past. While simulation will never completely replace hardware testing and qualification, Virtual Prototyping with SIMPLIS can detect over 50% of design errors that would otherwise go undetected until a power supply design is committed to hardware. We know of no other design quality improvement technique that can begin to match this capability.
The most productive users of SIMPLIS are using it to verify the performance of… Read more

The new release of SIMetrix/SIMPLIS Version 5.5 is now available. A few highlights:
The diode and MOSFET SPICE-to-SIMPLIS conversion routines have been redesigned to improve the quality and the versatility of the models. Users are now able to specify the current, voltage and operating temperature at which they want the conversion routine to convert the results of a Spice model into SIMPLIS parameters. By selecting and right clicking on a diode or MOSFET symbol, the user can then select "Edit Additional Parameters" to optimize the SIMPLIS model fit.
Some nice features have been added to the… Read more
