modelSingleQuadrantSwitch

A single quadrant switch, conductiong positive on-state currents and blocking positive off-state voltages. The switch is implemented as an enhancement mode NMOSFET transistor with a gate driver included.

Extends from ActiveSwitchAb ( An abstract model that defines pins, common to all active switches, derived from this model. Typically 'ctrl', relative to 'gnd', will determine whether the connection between 'p' and 'n' is opened or closed. Current from/to 'ctrl' will typically be negligible. ).

Parameters

TypeNameDefaultDescription
SI.ResistanceRonOn-state resistance [Ohm]
SI.VoltageVgson2.0Desired on-state gate to source voltage, necessary for the gate driver [V]

Connectors

TypeNameDefaultDescription
EL.Interfaces.PositivePinp (from ActiveSwitchAb)Positive pin
EL.Interfaces.NegativePinn (from ActiveSwitchAb)Negative pin
EL.Interfaces.PositivePinctrl (from ActiveSwitchAb)Switch control pin
EL.Interfaces.NegativePingnd (from ActiveSwitchAb) Reference voltage for switching, necessary for proper operation of gate driving circuits. Typically it should be connected to PWM's 'n' pin.
