Easy Component Selection and Performance Simulation
From Lab to Desk in Seconds
Listening is the first step when it comes to developing innovations for our customer's needs. We do not only provide products but also solutions to make the everyday work of engineers easier. Here it comes to innovative tools like our REDEXPERT design platform.
The platform provides low entry access to electronics design with highly accurate component and circuit models. You can easily filter on various product features, or determine the performance within your application, and compare them in charts. All data based on lab measurements.
Get the inductor AC and DC losses for your DC-DC converter or design an EMI filter – all based on your specific application. It will drastically reduce your time needed to select the best component.
REDEXPERT is a service from engineers for engineers. It’s more than you would expect because it offers simulation models that are not simply based on data sheet specifications, but on real measurement data from Würth Elektronik's laboratories.
Integrated Tools
Losses in storage chokes are one of the crucial factors in the design of efficient power supplies. With our world's most accurate AC loss model in REDEXPERT, the complete AC losses can be precisely simulated at any operating condition.
The model was measured with a square wave voltage resulting and a triangular inductor current.
Compared to Steinmetz, the Würth Elektronik model provides higher accuracy over a wide range of duty cycle.
With this application, you can design a discrete EMI filter for conducted differential noise from your input parameters. This application takes the guesswork out of EMI and reduces the time and cost. It is the first filter tool from a component manufacturer on the market.
Functions
Left: Display inductance value dependent on ambient temperature
Right: Temperature rise vs DC current chart considering ambient temperature
In the technical charts you can select operating conditions of the article, like for example ambient temperature for Power Inductors. You can add multiple sliders to easily compare parts and add filters to the sliders select only the most suitable parts.
With an API (Application Programmable Interface) two software systems can exchange data without manual intervention. For our customers and partners, we have developed a REST API that enables a connection to your systems. You can use parts data and simulation results in your external customer facing tools or in your internal systems.
How an API works is explained in the external 3 min video on the right.
This video shows external content from YouTube.
Connecting to our systems via API will offer you a variety of choices of data you can select from.
Get all specified properties of each article, mechanical and electrical.
Also get the datasheet, 3D and EDA models, S-parameter files and spice models.
For all products in our design platform REDEXPERT we offer extended component information, like detailed component characteristics on various frequency, temperatures, currents or voltages.
Get simulation results for each article, or a subsystem with your application requirements. For example, specify the parameters of your buck converter and get AC losses, DC losses and temperature rise for each power inductor or just the recommended parts.
For design tools we recommend using our REDEXPERT API. To get all WE-PD power inductors you can call our API with e.g. a call like this:
http://www.we-online.com/redexpert/api/v1/products
?module=4
&type=single
&series=we-pd
&size=7332
&inductance=gte:0.000022|lte:0.000033
&outp=series,order_code,Inductance,
rated_current,saturation_current
And it will return a list like shown in the picture on the right.
Or you can simulate a buck converter and return the 5 most recommended power inductors:

?converter=buck
&vin=21&vout=15&iout=15&fsw=500000
&max_results=5
Getting started is very easy
All customers connecting to our API get a full API documentation and first level to support.
