Chua's diode

Extends from Modelica.Electrical.Analog.Interfaces.TwoPin (Component with two electrical pins).

Information

This is an improved implementation of Chua's diode, based on 2 imporved NIC models with opAmps.
Note: This is a demonstration how to realize a piecewise linear characteristic with opAmps / NICs.

Note:

If voltage v is prescribed, the current i can be unambiguously determined.
If current i is prescribed, in the range between the zero crossings the voltage v has 2 or 3 possible solutions.
