Overview

Power Stage Designer is a JAVA-based tool that helps speed up power-supply designs as it calculates voltages and currents of 21 topologies based on user inputs. Additionally, Power Stage Designer contains a Bode plotting tool and a helpful toolbox with various functions to make power supply design easier. It is the quickest tool to start a new power-supply design because all calculations are executed in real time.

  • Topology window – provides topology information and component waveforms based on input parameters
  • Loop calculator – helps to determine the compensation network for different topologies
  • Load step calculator – estimates the minimum required output capacitance for a specified load transient
  • Filter designer – helps to find a starting point for differential mode filters
  • FET losses calculator – compares the performance of different FETs
  • Capacitor current sharing calculator – displays how RMS current is distributed among parallel capacitors
  • AC/DC-bulk capacitor calculator – helps to select the right bulk capacitance for AC/DC-power supplies
  • RC-snubber calculator for rectifiers – assists with choosing the right RC-snubber values to reduce ringing across rectifiers
  • RCD-snubber calculator for flyback converters – helps to reduce switching node ringing in flyback converters
  • Output voltage resistor divider calculator – calculates the output feedback resistor divider
  • Dynamic analog output voltage scaling calculator – provides the resistance values for the output feedback network to support output-voltage variation
  • Dynamic digital output voltage scaling calculator - Includes the resistance values for the output feedback network to support output-voltage variation
  • Unit converter – converts different power-supply related units
