Current-Controlled Voltage Source

A current driven voltage source.

current controlled voltage source

Description

The Current-Controlled Voltage Source block represents a current-controlled voltage source described by the following equation:

where:

  • - output voltage;

  • - 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 voltage source terminals. The polarity of the source is indicated by + and -.

Parameters

Transresistance Rmutual - transmission coefficient
1 ohm (by default)

Ratio of output voltage to control current; has the dimension of resistance.

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 voltage v2 - initial value of output voltage v2
0 (By default)

Initial value of output voltage .
