modelIdealDiode

Ideal leaking diode of analog electrical library

Extends from Interfaces.OnePort (OnePort partial model of analog electrical library).

Information

The ideal leaking electrical diode is built in bondgraphic technology from a bond graph D2 element, a 1-junction, and three bonds. A-causal bonds must be used here, because the causality depends on the embedding of the diode in its environment. A leaking diode has been used to ensure that the diode will not lead to a division by zero in either switch position, irrespective of the circuit topology.


Parameters:

 Ron:     Leakage resistance in on state (default value = 1e-5 Ohm)

 Goff:    Leakage conductance in off state (default value = 1e-5 Mho)

 Vknee:   Forward threshold voltage (default = 0 Volt)
