  • Jan 2022 - Present

  We are building specialized simulation software for magnetic choke (inductor) manufacturers. Our mission is to help magnetic component manufacturers to eliminate critical design errors before the first physical prototype is built. Oftentimes there are significant discrepancies between predicted design parameters and the physical prototype. Our application is focused, automatized, and therefore is easier to use compared to general FEM (finite element) packages. It verifies electromagnetic parameters (inductance, voltage, impedance) and predicts thermal loads on core and windings with less than 20% error.
