Current Source DC
Purpose
Generate constant current
Library
Electrical / Sources
Description
The DC Current Source generates a constant current between its two electrical
terminals. The direction of a positive current through the component is marked with
an arrow.
Note A current source may not be open-circuited or connected in series to an
inductor or any other current source.
Parameter
-
Current
- The magnitude of the constant current, in amperes (A). This parameter
may either be a scalar or a vector defining the width of the component. The
default value is 1.
Probe Signals
-
Source current
- The source current in amperes (A).
-
Source voltage
- The voltage measured across the source, in volts (V).
-
Source power
- The instantaneous output power of the source, in Watts (W).
