Library
Electrical / Sources
Description
The Controlled Current Source generates a variable current between its
two electrical terminals. The direction of a positive current through the
component is marked with an arrow. The momentary current is determined by the
signal fed into the input of the component.
Note A current source may not be
open-circuited or connected in series to an inductor or any other current
source.
