DigiKey, global distributor of electronic components and automation products, has collaborated on an enhanced eDesignSuite experience, developed with STMicroelectronics (ST) and Ultra Librarian. The tool environment is designed to allow engineers to design, simulate, refine and validate their projects using ST components and to purchase their entire bill of materials (BOM) directly from DigiKey.

The eDesignSuite from DigiKey, STMicroelectronics and Ultra Librarian helps engineers design, simulate and validate projects with integrated BOM refinement and multi-CAD export capabilities.

The eDesignSuite, developed by ST, is a free, publicly accessible, no-license-required online design platform that provides a unified workflow for power management, signal conditioning, NFC/RFID applications and other design domains. The collaboration with DigiKey and Ultra Librarian integrates component models, simulation flows, BOM management and multi-CAD exports.

“DigiKey is excited to collaborate with ST and Ultra Librarian to bring engineers a unified online tool that accelerates their design process,” said Nick D. Olson, supplier business development manager at DigiKey. “The deep integration within the eDesignSuite environment gives users advanced BOM verification, enhanced simulation insight, and a direct path from design to purchase, all of which help bring new products to market faster.”

Patrizia Bellitto, SW system tools—applications manager at STMicroelectronics, added: “This valuable collaboration with DigiKey and Ultra Librarian extends eDesignSuite from a powerful design tool into a unified design-to-purchase environment. By connecting simulation, component selection, CAD export and purchasing in a single browser-based environment, we’re simplifying the engineer’s journey and making it easier to design with ST technologies.”

Ultra Librarian is focused on simplifying the path from design to procurement,” explained Gopu Achath, vice president of technology at Ultra Librarian. “Through our integration with STMicroelectronics eDesignSuite, engineers can now seamlessly access component data and upload BOMs to DigiKey, creating a faster and more connected design environment,” said Achath.
