Gyrator - Simulate ideal gyrator in electrical systems
Library
Electrical Elements
Description
Gyrators can be used to implement an inductor with a capacitor.
The main benefit is that an equivalent inductance can be created with
a much smaller physically sized capacitance. In practice, a gyrator
is implemented with an op-amp plus additional passive components.
The Gyrator block models an ideal gyrator with no losses, described
with the following equations:
where
| V1 | Input voltage |
| V2 | Output voltage |
| I1 | Current flowing into the input + terminal |
| I2 | Current flowing out of the output + terminal |
| G | Gyration conductance |
The two electrical networks connected to the primary and secondary
windings must each have their own Electrical Reference block.
Dialog Box and Parameters
- Gyration conductance
The gyration conductance constant G. The
default value is 1.
Ports
The block has four electrical conserving ports. Polarity is
indicated by the + and – signs.
