The ADI Power Studio family of products, which includes advanced modeling, component recommendations, and efficiency analysis with simulation, was introduced by Analog Devices. Additionally, ADI is introducing early versions of ADI Power Studio Planner and ADI Power Studio Designer, two new web-based tools with a modernized user experience that fall under the Power Studio umbrella.
Introducing New Power Tools:
- ADI Power Studio Planner: The next-generation, web-based tool for system-level power tree planning, Power Studio Planner gives engineers an interactive view of their system architecture, providing clarity to model power distribution, calculate power loss, and analyze system efficiency with ease. With intelligent parametric search and tradeoff comparisons, teams can make faster, better architecture decisions from the start.
- ADI Power Studio Designer: A powerful, web-based tool for IC-level power supply design, Power Studio Designer provides optimized component recommendations, performance estimates, and tailored efficiency analysis. Built on the trusted ADI power design architecture, Power Studio Designer offers guided workflows so engineers can set key parameters and move confidently toward simulation, configuration and evaluation. By guiding users through these steps, engineers can build accurate models to simulate real-world performance with support for both LTspice and SIMPLIS schematics before moving to hardware.
The overall power system design process is streamlined by these new tools in addition to the entire ADI Power Studio portfolio, which includes LTspice, SIMPLIS, LTpowerCAD, LTpowerPlanner, EE-Sim, LTpowerPlay, and LTpowerAnalyzer.
The Power Studio tools enable engineers to design confidently and effectively by supporting them from the very beginning of the project through measurement and evaluation.
With dozens or even hundreds of power rails and interdependent voltage domains, modern electronic systems demand higher power densities than ever before.
When choosing components, making architecture decisions, and validating them, this complexity causes bottlenecks and necessitates rework.
By offering a streamlined, user-friendly workflow that simulates real-world performance with precise models and automates crucial outputs like bill of materials and report production, Power Studio helps engineering teams overcome these obstacles and make better decisions sooner.
The collection of tools can help engineers bring power-dense systems to market more quickly, reduce rework, and enable shorter development cycles.
ADI remains committed to supporting its portfolio of existing desktop and web-based power management tools, including LTspice, SIMPLIS, LTpowerCAD, LTpowerPlanner, EE-Sim, LTpowerPlay and LTpowerAnalyzer, to ensure customer continuity.
Power Studio Planner and Power Studio Designer are available now as part of the ADI Power Studio. These tools represent the first phase of ADI’s vision to deliver a fully connected power design workflow for customers, with ongoing updates and product announcements planned in the months ahead.
Leadership Comments
“ADI Power Studio is more than a set of tools — it’s a design ecosystem,” said Robert Reay, Vice President and Fellow, Power Products, ADI. “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.”
