Full quote These specify that the voltage v across the component is equal to the difference between the voltage at the positive and negative pins. The current i through the component is equal to the current going through the positive pin. Next snippet The current i through the component is equal to the current going through the positive pin. Related snippets Equations define mathematical relationships between the values of numeric variables. Equations in SysML, are constraints in constraint blocks that use properties of the blocks (parameters) as variables. In this example, a constraint block BinaryElectricalComponentConstraint defines parameters and constraints common to resistors, inductors, capacitors, and sources, as shown in Figure 40. Related snippets (backlinks) The current i through the component is equal to the current going through the positive pin. The sum of the current going through the two pins adds up to zero (one is the negative of the other), because the components do not create, destroy, or store charge. The constraints for the resistor, capacitor, and inductor specify the voltage/current relationship with resistance, capacitance, and inductance, respectively. The source constraint defines the circuit’s electrical source. The ground constraint specifies that the voltage at the ground pin is zero. The source constraint defines the voltage across it as a sine wave with the parameter amp as its amplitude. Visit also Visit also (backlinks) Flags
