SimSurfing is Murata’s newest design tool. SimSurfing gives the user the option of pre-selecting a known part number from a list or by inputting the part based on characteristics such as case size, inductance, and rated current. SimSurfing also allows users to plot actual measured data for each selected part. It includes Impedance vs. Frequency, Resistance vs. Frequency, and Q vs. Frequency. Design engineers can also utilize the S-parameters and Netlist provided in SimSurfing to simulate and examine the part’s performance.
