modelIdealTunnelDiode

Ideal leaking tunnel diode of analog electrical library

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

Information

The ideal leaking electrical tunnel diode is built in bondgraphic technology from a bond graph T2 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:

 G0:    Leakage conductance in blocking state (default value = 1e-5 Mho)

 R1:    Leakage resistance in first conducting state (default value = 1e-5 Ohm)

 R2:    Leakage resistance in second conducting state (default value = 1e-5 Ohm)

 R3:    Leakage resistance in final conducting state (default value = 1e-5 Ohm)

 em1:   First knee voltage (default value = 1 Volt)

 em2:   Second knee voltage (default value = 2 Volt)

 em3:   Third knee voltage (default value = 3 Volt)

 e0:    Fourth knee voltage (default value = 4 Volt)

 fm:    Bottom intermediate current (default value = 1 Amp)

 f0:    Top intermediate current (default value = 2 Amp)
