Diode

Electrical diode

Block Screenshot

Description

This component consists of a simple diode parallel with an ohmic resistance ( R ). The current ( I ) passing through this component is defined as a function of the voltage across the ports ( V ):

where Ids and Vt are the saturation current and the voltage equivalent of temperature, respectively. If the exponent reaches a certain limit (Max exponent for linear continuation), the diode characteristic becomes linear to avoid overflow.
