Online simulation tool expanded with power module designer

REDEXPERT, the online platform for the simple selection, simulation, and design-in of Würth Elektronik components, now provides a new function. The MagI³C Power Module Designer enables a power module's swift and hassle-free integration into an application without needing special DC-DC converter skills. The tool guides developers step-by-step through the complete selection and configuration process. The automatically created design proposal is rendered as a PDF file, together with a list of the required components. The tool also offers an option for directly ordering samples of selected company components.

Whenever you wish to use a MagI³C power module in the development of an application, the intuitive input mask guides users through the selection process, which asks to enter the application's requirements, such as input and output voltage and load current. After answering questions about whether the voltage supply needs to be galvanically isolated, users are presented with an initial proposal for a suitable MagI³C power module. This proposal then forms the basis for the individual configuration of parameters, for example, potentiometers for the output voltage, input and output capacitors, or switching frequency. The data for the application are then used to run a simulation of the power module, allowing users to analyse its performance parameters of the power module, such as efficiency, output-voltage ripple, and input-current consumption.

The design proposal can then be used to order the required samples directly from the company.
