In this paper, the presentation of methods and tools dedicated to the domain of power electronics is proposed. First, the main steps which lead to the design of a static converter are pointed out; then, for each of them, we present the different means which may be used to aid the designer. This point of view is illustrated by the presentation of tools which have been developed at the LEEI. Concerning the special case of the design, a set of software dedicated to the resonant DC-DC converters, capable of realizing an interactive design, for given specifications are presented.< >
