Description

Block Voltage Sensor It is an ideal voltage sensor, that is, a device that converts the voltage measured between two points in an electrical circuit into a proportional signal.

Use ports + and − to connect the sensor to other units in the circuit where you want to measure the voltage. The V port outputs the measurement result as a scalar.
