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).
