The IDS1 block computes the drain-source current of JFETs and GaAs MESFETs. Depending on the modeling level, a different algorithm is being used. The equations for each of these algorithms are programmed in functions, called JFETeq1 .. JFETeq3 that implement the particular model in question. These functions have been carefully documented to make it easier on future developers to add additional models of their own by providing corresponding JFETeq_i functions.
