Current-Controlled Current Source
Current controlled current source.
Description
The Current-Controlled Current Source block represents a current-controlled current source described by the following equation:
where:
-
- output current;
-
- gain;
-
- control circuit current.
To use the unit, connect the + and - ports on the left side of the unit (control ports) to a control current source. The arrow between these ports indicates the positive direction of the control current. The two ports on the right side of the unit (output ports) represent the output current source; the arrow indicates the positive direction of the output current.
Ports
The unit has four electrical ports. The + and - connections on the left side of the unit are control ports; they represent the control circuit terminals. The other two ports represent the output current source terminals. The arrows between each pair of ports indicate the positive direction of the corresponding current.
Parameters
Current gain - current gain factor
`1 (By default)
Ratio of output current to the current flowing through the control circuit; dimensionless coefficient.
Initial value of input current i1 - initial value of input (control) current i1
`0 (By default)
Initial value of input current .
Initial value of output current i2 - initial value of output current i2
0 (By default)
Initial value of output current .
