Currently in a typical power module design flow, the different design tasks like schematic design, layout, and simulation are not linked and this can cause engineering intensive design iterations. This type of workflow is usually based on multi-vendor software as well.
These disconnected and manual processes, plus the low usage of simulation, lead to higher development costs. For this reason, a highly integrated design and verification flow is needed.
Siemens provides a new digital thread design approach to power electronic modules in an integrated workflow to accelerate time-to-market while reducing development costs.
