New ADI Power Studio for Smarter Power Management Design
Cette publication existe aussi en Français
Analog Devices has launched ADI Power Studio, a new suite of power design and optimization tools aimed at simplifying and accelerating complex power management workflows. ADI says the product family unifies its well-known design platforms, including LTspice, SIMPLIS, and LTpowerCAD, in one ecosystem.
For eeNews Europe readers working on power-dense and efficiency-critical applications, this release could signal a major step forward in integrated, simulation-driven design environments that reduce iteration cycles and design risk. It’s a move that could make power design faster, easier, and more reliable for engineers tackling today’s complex systems.
A Unified Ecosystem for Power Design
Today’s electronics demand higher power density and efficiency across multiple voltage domains. This creates challenges in system planning and validation. ADI Power Studio can tackle such issues by offering a unified workflow that combines modeling, simulation, and automated documentation. Engineers can progress from concept to evaluation with accurate performance models and automated outputs like bills of materials and reports.
The platform also introduces two web-based tools designed to enhance system-level and IC-level design processes: ADI Power Studio Planner and ADI Power Studio Designer. ADI says the former was developed to help engineers visualize system architecture and power distribution, making it easier to model losses, calculate efficiency, and analyze tradeoffs at the earliest stages of development. They say ADI Power Studio Designer was developed to support component-level optimization, offering guided workflows, component recommendations, and simulation support via LTspice and SIMPLIS.
“ADI Power Studio is more than a set of tools — it’s a design ecosystem,” Robert Reay, Vice President and Fellow, Power Products, ADI, said in a release. “By integrating new system-level and IC-level design capabilities into a single product family, we’re enabling engineers to streamline power management design and optimization so they have the potential to get solutions to their customers faster.”
Faster Dev Through Connected Tools
The ADI Power Studio family includes both legacy and new-generation solutions such as LTpowerPlanner, EE-Sim, LTpowerPlay, and LTpowerAnalyzer, ensuring backward compatibility and continuity. The connected workflow aims to minimize rework, improve simulation accuracy, and help teams make better architecture decisions earlier in the design process.
Additional enhancements expected in the coming months, ADI notes.
