Sanken STR Pro: Off-line Converter Design Tool 
Automated Calculator You Just Need to Enter Power Supply Specs
Sanken STR Pro is a design support tool that automatically calculates optimal constants. You can simply enter the specifications of your power supply and get various data necessary for designing peripheral circuits, transformers, and more.
With our many years of experience in power supply designing, we have put our design-case-based knowledge into the tool’s database. If you are working on a design project but unfamiliar with it in some part, Sanken STR Pro is right here to help you through its correct calculations.
In addition, the tool auto-creates and outputs specification data in a format submittable to transformer manufacturers. This makes your document tasks more time-saving.
Sanken STR Pro is a key enabler — you can remarkably reduce your workloads in off-line converter development that involves actual equipment testing.
The tool only supports the STR6A/6S series so far. See more in the product list.
Simple and Easy to Use
Click below to download the tool’s zip file.
Unzip the .zip file you downloaded. Open the .xlsm file and enable macros.
In the sheet that first appears, enter the input/output specifications of your power supply. The tool runs calculations automatically.
(You can also set the optional parameters, e.g., protection functions and oscillation frequency.)
Sanken STR Pro outputs three pieces of information as follows:
Sanken STR Pro Features
Our proven know-how in designing will be at your fingertips.
- Runs correct calculations by using the database created with our past design cases.
You will no longer deal with computation you are unsure about. - Outputs a recommended PCB layout usable as a reference in PCB designing.
- Helps you design a high-efficient and low-noise power supply.
You can eliminate time-consuming calculations for transformer and peripheral circuit constants.
- Auto-calculates all parameters for transformer designing. You will no longer deal with manual calculations.
- Auto-selects an off-line converter IC and diodes ideal for your power supply specifications.
- Auto-calculates the ratings of peripheral parts to help you choose parts effortlessly.
You can directly submit the output data to transformer manufacturers as it is.
- Outputs the specifications of a transformer in a format submittable to transformer manufacturers.
Note that bobbins may differ among transformer manufacturers. Modifications to the tool’s output data may be required per manufacturer.
