The company’s newly-developed evaluation platform allows users to perform simulations of its analog and power chips. The IC evaluation platform enables Cadence OrCAD PSpice, described as a robust and widely diffused technology for the simulation of the analog and power device families. The company’s analog devices are already supported by its SMPS@eDesign Studio free online tool, conceived specifically to help the design and simulation of switch-mode power supplies. Now, designs obtained via SMPS@eDesign Studio can be more accurately simulated within the Cadence OrCAD platform using PSpice. A free version of the OrCAD PSpice technology will be available for download on the Cadence website. For more details, call STMICROELECTRONICS, Lexington, MA. (888) 787-3550.
