PVCVS - Model polynomial voltage-controlled voltage source

Library

SPICE-Compatible Sources

Description

The PVCVS (Polynomial Voltage-Controlled Voltage Source) block represents a voltage source whose output voltage value is a polynomial function of the voltage across the input ports. The following equations describe the voltage across the source as a function of time:

• If you specify an n-element vector of polynomial coefficients for the Polynomial coefficients parameter:

  

• If you specify a scalar coefficient for the Polynomial coefficients parameter:

  

where:

• V_in is the voltage across the input ports.

• p is the Polynomial coefficients parameter value.

Dialog Box and Parameters

Polynomial coefficients

The polynomial coefficients that relate the input voltage to the output voltage, as described in the preceding section. The default value is [ 0 1 ].

Ports

The block has the following ports:

+

Positive electrical input voltage.

-

Negative electrical input voltage.

N+

Positive electrical output voltage.

N-

Negative electrical output voltage.
