SimLab Tutorial: PE Power Module

Description

As shown below, the studied device is a power electronic module component. The entire module is assumed to be made of conducting material and the goal is to compute the Z and S parameter.

SimLab-EM provides a very convenient power module meshing tool and simple circuit connection method, as shown below:

After the simulation is completed, based on the integration method, users can obtain the results of S parameters and Z parameters:

Example access

All files corresponding to this example are accessible in the following link: Tutorial package.

Note: The tutorial packaging may evolve with each new version, but not mandatory. The latest version of the tutorial package will automatically work with the most recent release of SimLab.

Example: After installing the SimLab 2025 release, you can find the latest Tuto_2024.zip package. This means that the tutorial has not been updated since 2024 release, that the tutorial does not need to be updated, and that the tutorial still works in 2024.1 release and 2025 release.
