Description
This component implements a magnetic coupling between two separate windings. For both windings the self inductance and resistance are specified individually. The mutual inductance and resistance are modeled as linear elements.
The electrical circuit for this component is given below:
In the symbol of the mutual inductance, the positive terminal of the primary winding is marked with a little circle. The positive terminal of the secondary winding is marked with a dot.
