Modeling Electronic Components

SimElectronics contains several libraries that enable you to incorporate electronic components into your model. Many types of transistors (such as JFET, NPN, PNP, and MOSFET) are included to let you include nonlinearities and high-frequency dynamics associated with these components. Models of integrated circuits, such as op-amps, enable you to design and verify circuits for analog amplification and control, such as a PID controller. The passive components library extends the basic Simscape library with models of devices such as variable capacitors and variable inductors which can be used for modeling custom components, such as sensors. A library of SPICE-compatible elements offers models of electronic components that use industry-standard SPICE parameters. It is also possible to include temperature dependence in your design using the SPICE-compatible elements.
