Keysight Technologies announced Power Electronics Professional (PEPro) software, a new add-on to PathWave Advanced Design System (ADS) that enables designers to visualize effects of switched-mode power supply (SMPS) designs without the need to build and test time-consuming prototypes.
Keysight’s PEPro software makes post-layout analysis as easy as pre-layout analysis. It includes automatic setup that previously required an expert. In addition, it offers pre-built analyses of effects such as voltage spiking and electromagnetic interference (EMI).
“Keysight understands that customers value application-specific post-layout analysis tools over more general-purpose ones,” said Colin Warwick, Product Manager for Power Electronics EDA tools at Keysight. “I’m pleased that we can add PEPro to the family. It’s tailor-made for solving the challenges that SMPS designers face in this high switching speed era.”
Pre-production PEPro is available to select customers under the Early Access program for ADS. The production version will be available on July 1st.
