modelPNPth

Information

The PNPth bipolar heating transistor is a directed FourPort. The direction of positive power flow is assumed out of the model at the base, B, at the collector, C, and at the heat port, Heat, whereas it is assumed into the model at the emitter, E.

The causality of the PNPth model is relatively free. However, if there is a causality stroke placed at the collector from the outside, the substrate capacitor will assume differential causality.
