Collaborative Design Automation Toolkit for Power Controllers in Aerospace Applications

Abstract

In this work we present the latest status on our rapid design process and automated toolkit for aerospace power controllers. The goal is to generate correct-by-design flight hardware from high level requirements with a minimum of manual engineering work. This is achieved by maintaining a database of readily usable design elements (circuit designs, PCB layouts, simulation models and documentation snippets). In this paper we focus on the different roles of human interaction with the toolkit and how we can streamline the process to final flight worthy hardware by parallelizing single design tasks.
