Design software for desiging digital power sys using Exar' s chips

Exar has released the PowerArchitect 3.0, a design software for designing digital power controllers using Exar's PowerXR family of power controllers.

The features of PowerArchitect 3.0 are:
1. It is an interactive design tool that enables designers to quickly architect, prototype and then move their designs into production.
2. This tool can be used to configure complex capabilities such as sequencing, voltage and current levels, dynamic provisioning and telemetry, designers can quickly make power updates as system requirements change.
3. Allow power design experts to access all the advanced features, while also providing an intuitive interface for those not as familiar with power theory.

"Speed and flexibility are critical for modern power supply design," said Tim Maloney, senior director, Digital Power Marketing. "PowerArchitect 3.0 adds many new features such as a Design Wizard to quickly create a power system based on a pre-existing design which will enable our customers to move faster than ever before from prototype to production."
