PowerArchitect 3.0 overview
PowerXR is a family of programmable power supplies and represents a new methodology for creating complex power systems by reducing risk and speeding development time. PowerArchitect is an interactive design tool that enables designers to quickly architect, prototype and then move their designs into production.

Using PowerArchitect 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.

Furthermore, the tool allows the seasoned power design expert to access all the advanced features, while also providing an intuitive interface for those not as familiar with power theory.
