New Design Verification Module for SIMetrix / SIMPLIS
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. SIMetrix/SIMPLIS DVM brings the full benefits of Virtual Prototyping within practical reach of the power supply designer.
| With less than 5 minutes of schematic preparation, a switching power supply circuit can be configured and prepared for a comprehensive simulation test suite characterizing the performance of the design. With a few clicks of the mouse, a designer can launch a barrage of tests covering AC, Transient and Steady-State analyses with no additional user intervention required. | More about the Test Plan... » |

Test Report
Upon completion of the test suite, the Design Verification Module generates an overview report, giving the user a high level view of the circuit's performance compared to its specifications. From the overview report, a designer can drill down to any individual test result and examine measured results, static waveform graphics, and even the raw waveform data itself, if so desired. An example test report can be found here.
