从最新的AD15.0中发现在可以利用WEBENCH® Design Center进行仿真——有关微博如下:
Announcement: FREE TI WEBENCH® Altium Connector Extension
Dan Fernsebner
, Jun 03, 2014
Hi Everyone,
I’m very pleased to announce the release of another great 3rd party extension for Altium Designer, the WEBENCH® Altium Connector.
The WEBENCH® Design Center and WEBENCH® Simulation Engine assist enormously with the development of power, lighting, filtering, clocking and sensing designs. Allowing you to generate, optimize and simulate designs, while making the necessary value-based tradeoffs to meet your design and supply chain requirements.
The free WEBENCH® Altium Connector provides both an interface to the online WEBENCH® Design Center and an offline interface to the WEBENCH® Simulation Engine, allowing the following:
Access WEBENCH® Design Center from Altium Designer and optimize your design.
Export that design from WEBENCH® to Altium Designer.
Simulate any circuit using the fast WEBENCH® Simulation Engine from Altium Designer.
Details about using this extensions can be found in Altium Techdocs, here and more about WEBENCH® from Texas Instruments can be found here. Below are installation and licensing instructions.
Kind Regards and Thanks,
Dan
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************
Installation and Setup
The extension is visible to subscription customers from Altium Designer, DXP > Extensions and Updates > Purchased. A WEBENCH® license from Texas Instruments is required.
Installing License for WEBENCH® Simulation Engine:
When you run the WEBENCH simulation engine for first time on a design, it will ask for a node license.
Attach the logfile showing the WBSE license not found and send an email to wbse@ti.com for a license. This file is needed for generating a WEBENCH® Simulation Engine license.
Once license is received, rename the license file as "node_license" (if not already done) and place it in <WEBENCH Extension Installation Directory>\WBSE.
Usually you will find it in c:\ProgramData\Altium\Altium Designer {2F259E6B-E4FF-4EB4-9ABC-063D5507D841}\Extensions\WEBENCH\WBSE\node_license
You are ready to use the WEBENCH® Simulation Engine.
Note: The received license file may have some extension associated with it. The license file must be renamed to "node_license", removing any extension if present.
上面看起来很简单:
1.确保你的AD有能用的license ,这是在网上很多,破解的也行,试用的license 也罢,只要能用就OK.
2.正常运行AD15(AD14也可以):按如下操作
Add / remove modules can:
a) Run the installer again and choose to update an existing installation
b) of Altium Designer (DXP -> My Account -> Extensions & Updates -> Platform -> Configure)这里可以查看你是插件配置情况
c ) Extensions (Software Extensions, Hardware Devices) are installed and removed from the
Altium Designer (DXP -> My Account -> Extensions & Updates)——————):》在这里会发现有WEBENCH插件,点击安装。如果你是正式 altium客户,这个插件是从官方网下载的,如果你是吊丝这个插件应你在你的下载离线安装包里。确保联网。
装好后,reset DXP
3.打开 % ProgramData% \ Altium \ Altium Designer {<GUID>} \ WEBENCH \ WBSE \ Examples下的项目文件,如图你会发现惊喜:
4.能看见WEBENCH 在altium菜单。然后---》》》》Start the simulation WEBENCH。运行后会提示没有license ,这时点击打开错误提示,其实就是TI的个网页:http://webench.ti.com/appinfo/webench/scripts
申请成功后如下:
5.这时要用IT的账户登陆(没有自己申请一个),获取 simulation WEBENCH 的激活吗。获取激活码后,再回到AD15激活WEBENCH功能---如下图操作:
如上动画如示操作。再回到原来打开的WEBENCH的项目文件,可仿真运行,没提示错误。

如果天空是黑暗的,那就摸黑生存;
如果发出声音是危险的,那就保持沉默;
如果自觉无力发光,那就蜷伏于牆角。
但是,不要习惯了黑暗就为黑暗辩护;
也不要为自己的苟且而得意;
不要嘲讽那些比自己更勇敢的人。
我们可以卑微如尘土,但不可扭曲如蛆虫。
