A Comparative Analysis of Computer-Aided Design Tools for Complex Power Electronics Systems

Companies working on semiconductors must currently assure the customers of not only the performance of the semiconductor device per se, but also its performance when it is implemented in a real board, therefore including the role of parasitic effects. It is therefore very important to evaluate, espe...
