Never redraw your
schematic again

Your team needs to validate the control concept before writing firmware. Open loop sweeps, transient responses, topology trade-offs. Most teams reach for a separate offline tool and create models that get thrown away.

• TyphoonSim: fully flexible variable-step offline simulator. No real-time constraints, supports open loop simulation, transient, and frequency domain analysis.
• Same schematic transitions directly to real-time HIL. No redrawing.

Eliminating model translation between offline and real-time simulation removes a major source of modelling errors and rework. One toolchain, one model, one source of truth.

Your control concept is validated in simulation. The next step is closing the loop with real hardware, but the control board doesn’t exist yet.

• Typhoon HIL control prototyping platform runs your algorithm against the real-time power stage model, all on the same HIL device.
• Alternatively, use code generation or a third-party RCP platform (from any vendor or custom made) using HIL as a plant.

From weeks to days. Rapid control prototyping compresses the algorithm concept to closed-loop hardware validation from weeks to days. Hardware prototype iterations are reduced because more issues are found earlier.

Your firmware is written and deployed on control hardware. Lab access is shared, test setups are scarce, and the fault scenarios that matter most simply cannot be run safely on real power.

• Typhoon HIL’s signature closed-loop HIL: real control hardware, real control firmware, real-time power stage model. Your controller cannot tell the difference.
• Full access to signals inside the model. Visibility that physical hardware cannot provide.

Testing software with software, not power. Fault and edge-case scenarios that are impractical or unsafe on physical hardware. Repeatable. 24/7.

Your product-grade control hardware and firmware are ready for validation. A handful of operating points in the power lab is not coverage, it’s a sample. Results here determine what you release and with what level of confidence.

• Full C-HIL: real production control HW, FW, IO and comms, connected to a high-fidelity nanosecond-scale real-time model.
• Switching dynamics accurately represented. What you test matches what your product sees in the field.

Systematic operating point coverage, stress testing, and regression testing against a controlled, repeatable virtual plant. Equivalent test coverage in half the time and at a fraction of the cost per operating point vs. power lab testing.

Grid faults, shoot-throughs, overcurrent events, sensor failures. Testing on physical hardware is dangerous, expensive, and impractical. Most teams either skip the dangerous scenarios entirely, or stage them once on live hardware and hope the result is reproducible.

• Programmable fault injection: any scenario defined, triggered, and repeated with exact timing.
• Full safety: faults injected into the simulation, not into live power hardware.

Lower cost per test run vs. power lab. The cost of a field failure is orders of magnitude higher than finding the same fault in a controlled HIL environment.

Manual testing is inherently limited. Every firmware build creates a regression obligation. Without automation, that obligation either blocks the release or gets quietly skipped. Defects reach the field.

• TyphoonTest: Python-based test automation framework purpose-built for power electronics HIL, not adapted from generic tools.
• Structured reporting and result logging support traceability for regulated markets and CI/CD integration.

Orders of magnitude higher test coverage with same manpower. Automated sequences cover hundreds of operating points, fault conditions, and edge cases in a single overnight run.

Your product is released, but firmware updates, new features, and field issues mean the testing work never stops. Without a maintained HIL baseline each update is an overhead and carries accumulated regression risk.

• Typhoon Test Hub: Centralized management of test campaigns, results, and baselines across product versions. Continuous validation coverage, no manual scheduling.
• The same HIL model used in development serves as the permanent regression reference.

Every line added to the test automation IP comes back uncountable times. Lifecycle maintenance on HIL costs a fraction of equivalent power lab upkeep. The model travels with the product.

Demonstrate actual key product behavior under real conditions, anytime anyplace. At the trade show, prospect meeting, partner event.

• HIL Compatible product demonstrator. Your actual product in a compact, portable, safe “table-top” digital twin.
• Prospects interact with your product’s real interface and observe real dynamic behavior, not a pre-recorded demo.

Enable impact on business goals. Prospects see real converter behavior in their application context. Sales cycles shorten. HIL changes from cost to profit center.

“Can you prove it works in our application?” Your prospect is designing a project and needs to know your product fits their specific load profiles, grid conditions, and performance requirements, before committing to a purchase.

• HIL Compatible models emulate the customer’s specific project with your actual product model, providing credible results.
• As a complement, exchange SIL and real-time SIL models with prospects, academia, certifiers, and advisors. At your terms.

Customer experience. Customers see your product validated in their specific application. Sales cycles compress from weeks to days. One engineer supports more customers.

Your application engineering team supports an increasing number of customer-specific designs, each with unique requirements. Time is a bottleneck. The model makes it scalable.

• Application-specific parameter tuning on

  HIL Compatible high-fidelity platform for validated application design.

• Results build a reusable library of validated application designs, reducing time on future similar projects.

Supporting more customers, faster. Application engineering becomes scalable knowledge asset reusable across customers and markets.

A customer reports unexpected converter behavior in a specific application condition. Reproducing it means travelling to site, or shipping hardware back. Diagnosis means a lengthy back-and-forth from data logs.

Hours instead of weeks for field issue resolution. Customer experience beyond expectations x visible cost savings from on-site support visits and shipping overheads.

The most expensive place to find a system integration problem is on site. This is where you make sure it does not happen.

• FAT and SAT performed on the model. Grid fault response, protection coordination, and dispatch behavior validated in a controlled environment.
• HIL Compatible: system-level validation with your real product controller in the loop, against a model of the complete plant.

Project-in, project-out. System-level issues are caught and resolved digitally, not during expensive on-site commissioning.

Every hour of delay on a commissioned project costs real money for real stakeholders. Ensure you come prepared.

Commissioning measures time. Preparation reduced, surprises tested, coverage expanded. Thousands of scenarios completed digitally.

Witness testing is a gate. Failures at this stage are the most expensive in the entire project.

• FAT and witness testing performed on the HIL Compatible platform. The system has already been proven digitally.
• Fault ride-through, protection trip, and grid disturbance response. Real converter behavior with real firmware and real interfaces demonstrated on the model.

At handover when model has been validated. Witness testing on the model turns a high-stakes gate into a formality.

Plant operators need to understand real system behavior: under normal conditions and during faults and unusual operating modes. Training on live equipment is expensive and carries risk.

Operator training on live system behavior. Better-trained operators make fewer errors, respond faster to abnormal conditions, and experience fewer unplanned outages.

Your product is installed and running. The questions don’t stop, but change.

• The HIL Compatible model on customer site ensures customer intimacy over the entire lifecycle.
• Model maintenance becomes a recurring revenue-generating service, not a one-time deliverable.

Revenue from model maintenance services. The model travels as far downstream as your product. Every deployment stage adds commercial value.
