Power electronics simulation,
Power electronics simulation,
open to every campus.
SIMBA is freely available to professors, researchers, and students engaged in teaching and academic research in power electronics. Because the next generation of power electronics engineers deserves the best tools, from day one.
Professors & Lecturers
Integrate SIMBA into your power electronics courses. Give your students access to the same tool used in industry.
Free institutional license
Master's & PhD Students
Run your thesis simulations, converter design, SiC characterization, efficiency mapping, with a professional-grade tool. No artificial limits on model complexity.
Full access via institution
Academic Researchers
Publish with confidence. SIMBA's Python API and multi-physics co-simulation capabilities are designed for the kind of rigorous, reproducible research that leads to impactful papers.
Non-commercial research
Our mission
Simulation shouldn't
be a privilege.
It should be a reflex.
Too many power electronics courses still rely on paper calculations and simplified models because the real simulation tools are expensive, complex to license, or disconnected from how research is actually done.
We believe that students who graduate having designed and validated converters with professional simulation tools become better engineers. Faster.
The SIMBA Academy program is our commitment to making that possible, on every campus that wants it.
"The next generation of power electronics engineers should learn on the same tools they'll use in industry, not on simplified stand-ins."
- AESIM Technologies - SIMBA Academy
Teach with real tools
Bring industry-standard simulation directly into your curriculum.
Bridge to industry
Students already know SIMBA when they join their first team.
Push research further
Python API + co-simulation for reproducible, publishable results.
Global community
Join a growing network of academic institutions using SIMBA.
What's included
Everything.
Not a limited trial.
The academic license gives your institution access to the full SIMBA platform, the same version used by industrial customers. No feature restrictions, no model size limits, no watermarks on results.
Python API, no limits
Full access to the SIMBA Python module. Parametric sweeps, Monte-Carlo analysis, multiprocessing campaigns, Jupyter notebooks, custom data pipelines, all available to students and researchers alike.
Technical resources & examples
Access to the full documentation, 40+ Python example scripts, and the technical resources repository, including DC-DC, motor drives, thermal, Monte-Carlo, and co-simulation examples.
Onboarding support
Installation, activation, and initial setup support from the SIMBA team. We make sure your institution is up and running before your course starts.
SIMBA Online access
Remote execution capability so students can run simulations from any machine, no local installation required for student access during courses and project work.
Partnership network
Visibility in the SIMBA academic network. Opportunities for co-publication support, industrial collaboration, and student-company connections through the SIMBA ecosystem.
Why it matters
What changes when students
simulate like engineers.
When students graduate having designed and validated real converters with professional tools, the gap between academia and industry narrows, for everyone.
For students
"I already knew SIMBA before my internship at the R&D lab. I was productive from week one instead of spending a month learning the simulation tool."
Master's student in power electronics
For professors
"My students can now explore what actually happens at device level, switching transients, gate ringing, thermal runaway. Not just an idealized textbook waveform."
Associate Professor, electrical engineering
For research
"The Python API lets us run our Monte-Carlo thermal analysis on the HPC cluster, reproduce results exactly, and export everything for the paper. That reproducibility matters."

Is your institution
teaching the tools
industry actually uses?
Tell us about your course or research program. If SIMBA is a good fit, we'll have your institution up and running before your next semester starts, at no cost.
