For example, it would not bepossible to get the same level of performance in machine tool and robotic drives, or in pulp andpaper mill drives, or various vehicle propulsion systems without the use of a proper powerelectronic converter. The discipline is now becoming vital to industry and its application isspreading by leaps and bounds with the development of new and more powerful devices.Widespread applications of Power electronic devices can be seen in industrial, commercial,residential, utility, military and aerospace environments.

Coupled with advances in EDA, this goal has led overthe last few years to a shift from the old “find and fix” approach to a new “predict and prevent”paradigm10. Figure 1 illustrates the relationships between the various design functions that supportthis new approach. Here, the design starts with a virtual prototype and ends with complete designverification. This total system approach has driven the industry design trends that are described inthe following paragraphs. System
