Resistor

A resistor model for envelope analysis.

blockType: SubSystem

Path in the library:

/RF/Circuit Envelope/Elements/Resistor

Description

Block Resistor simulates a resistor in an envelope simulation environment.

The block implements the ratio:

where

  • — resistance depending on temperature;

  • — the current passing through the capacitor at a certain point in time ;

  • — voltage at the terminals of the capacitor at a certain point in time .

Current and voltage signals in RF blocks consist of common-mode ( ) and quadrature ( ) components at each frequency specified in the block Configuration:

The block icon Resistor depends on the parameter value Simulate noise.

# Resistane, Ohm — the value of resistance

Details

The resistance value specified as a real number. Specify the units of resistance measurement in the corresponding drop-down menu.

Default value

50

Program usage name

resist

Tunable

No

Evaluatable

Yes

# Simulate noise — thermal noise simulation

Details

Check this box to simulate thermal noise in the resistor. Then in the block Configuration also check the box Simulate noise. Both checkboxes are set By default.

This parameter determines the current noise source with a one-way power density equal to in A2/Hz, where

  • — Boltzmann constant;

  • — parameter value Temperature, K in the block Configuration.

Default value

true (switched on)

Program usage name
