Hello John,
Thanks for your interest in TI FETs. What is the tool in the picture in your post? Is this something from TI. We have some power loss tools available at the links below. If you can tell me more about your application, then I may be able to better assist you.
Dear John,
Application is power tools!
Since picture find in web and I found the TI part number, I don't know if TI will have it.

Hi John,
Thanks for the quick response. Since your application is for power tools, I am assuming that this is for a brushless DC motor. I am responsible for TI's FETs and we don't have a FET power loss calculation tool for BLDC. However, if you can share your requirements, I will try to help you. If you don't feel comfortable sharing this information on the public e2e forum, I will send you a friend request and you can share in a private message to me.
Hi John,
Following up to see what else I can do to help you. I can forward this thread to the BLDC applications team to see if they can assist.
Dear John,
Thank you ver much!! hope that BLDC team can share the document ^^

John,
This tool is not familiar to the BLDC team unfortunately. We have not seen it before.

Hi John,
I did some additional searching and it appears that the tool associated with the picture in your original post is for a 4-switch buck-boost controller: LM5176. It is an excel-based design tool that can be found in the LM5176 product folder on TI.com. I have included a link below.
