Tyco Electronics Power Systems releases the new FlowSim simulator for its Power Module products.

This LabView based tool allows the simulation of three and single phase outputs as well as three and single phase input stages and PFC circuits, supporting applications like motor drives, solar inverter, UPS and switch mode power supplies.

FlowSim uses real measured data gathered during the characterization of the power modules for the calculation of the power losses providing access to up to 2 million data points per module.

Previously this tool was only partly available for engineers in the application notes.

This combination of simulation for the application output wave forms and calculation of the power component losses based on real measured data provides an industry-unmatched simulator performance in terms of accuracy and speed.

Tyco Electronics will support all new standard products with the new FlowSim simulator, which can be downloaded free of charge.
