Tailored to Your Circuit Parasitics, Accurate Simulation

onsemi's Self-Service PLECS Model Generator (SSPMG) lets engineers create custom, high-fidelity models for seamless integration and simulation.

Accurate Prototype Possible with Novel SPICE Models

Typical PLECS models, often based on lab conditions, may not accurately predict real-world component behavior. The engine under the SSPMG hood is onsemi’s physical & scalable SPICE models. These models provide an accurate and efficient way to simulate the behavior of power devices in a power electronics circuit, reducing the time required for product development.

Tool Features

Explore the SSPMG features below and find out why SSPMG enables you to generate accurate PLECS models.

Hard and Soft Switching

Typical industry system-level simulators employ PLECS models valid only for hard switching, rendering simulation results for soft-switching applications highly inaccurate. onsemi has advanced the state-of-the-art through industry-first PLECS models that are valid for both hard and soft switching applications such as DC-DC LLC and CLLC Resonant, Dual Active Bridge, and Phase Shifted Full Bridge.

Custom Application Parasitics

It is tailored to the user-specified application circuit parasitics which significantly influence conduction and switching energy losses.

High-Density Broad Table

They are tailored to user-specified electrical bias and temperature conditions for conduction and switching energy loss data. Users can create dense tables to ensure accurate interpolation and avoid inaccurate extrapolation in their system simulations.

Corner Models

Our corner models are valid at typical and corner conditions for the product, enabling users to track application performances in worst, nominal, and best-case fabrication conditions of the conduction and switching energy losses.

Physically scalable SPICE models consider the physical structure of the modeled component, resulting in a more accurate representation of its behavior in the circuit. This is particularly important for new technology nodes where traditional models may not be accurate enough.

Physically based SPICE models are scalable to different technology nodes, meaning that the same model can be used to simulate a component in other process technologies, reducing the time and effort required to create new models for each technology node.

Users can predict the circuit’s performance more accurately, which helps identify and fix performance bottlenecks early in the design process.

Tailored Application Parasitics

Users can input representative parasitics for their application to create high-accuracy loss models using Self-Service PLECS Model Generator, and then upload the model file to the Elite Power Simulator environment.
