SmartCtrl - Control Design Software for Power Electronics
The easiest and fastest way to design the control of your power converter
With a perfect combination of predefined topologies and compensators and a custom design with a powerful equation editor that lets you create your own transfer functions for all the power converter elements: plant, sensor and compensator. Import your system frequency response and export your final control design to PSIM: stay connected.
Control Designs from Specs
Starting from a specification, design quickly and visually the best control for your converter, with result feedback for both analog and digital controls.
Multi-Loop Control Structures
Both Average-Current Mode Control and Peak-Current Mode Control are supported in SmartCtrl, providing greater scope in design.
Solutions Map
Optimize your design using the solutions map. Navigate the cursor within a stable solutions space, which aids in your selection of the optimal design.
Analyze How Robust your Control is
Does your control remain stable when the input voltage changes? SmartCtrl’s Parametric Sweep feature allows you to carry out sensitivity analysis of every parameter of the plant, sensor and regulator.
Create and Edit your own Analytical Model
With the Equation Editor, you can customize your own analytical model for your specific converter. The design tools of SmartCtrl then help you to calculate the compensator required.
Analog and Digital Control are supplied
Design the control of your converter directly in the digital domain or, alternatively, transform an analog control to digital and then examine the effect of sample rate, digital delay, number of bits, etc.
Detailed Output Information
SmartCtrl provides detailed information about the designed compensator (resistor, capacitors or z-domain coefficients), and about the power stage and steady-state waveforms.
Reports can be generated automatically, and every plot can be exported efficiently (as an image or data points).
